The original edition wascomprised two books, labelled part 1 and part 2. The first hadcovered general aspects of [[relativistic quantum mechanics]] and relativistic [[quantum field theory]], leading onto [[quantum electrodynamics]]. The second continued on with quantum electrodynamics and what was then known about the [[strong interaction|strong]] and [[weak interaction]]s. These books were published in the early 1970s, at a time when the strong and weak forces were still not well understood. In the second edition, the corresponding sections were scrapped and replaced with more topics in the well-established quantum electrodynamics, and the two parts were unified into one, thus providing a one-volume exposition on relativistic quantum field theory with the electromagnetic interaction as the prototype of a quantum field theory.

CoversVolume 8 covers electromagnetism in materials, and includes a variety of topics in condensed matter physics, a chapter on [[magnetohydrodynamics]], and another on [[nonlinear optics]].
