"This graduate textbook covers the basic formalism of supergravity, as well as a wide range of its modern applications, suitable for a focused first course. Assuming a working knowledge of quantum field theory, it gives Ph.D. students the tools they need to do research that uses supergravity"--

String theory is the only known consistent theory of quantum gravity that can deal with the highest energy scales near the Planck energy, relevant for cosmology's beginning.

An innovative and accessible text that introduces all the necessary concepts needed to engage with the methods, tools, and applications of AdS/CFT correspondence, without assuming anything beyond an introductory course in quantum field theory. Pedagogical and self-contained, it is an excellent introduction for students and researchers across theoretical physics.
