Introduction To Covariant Quantum Gravity And Asymptotic Safety, An

This book covers recent developments in the covariant formulation of quantum gravity. Developed in the 1960s by Feynman and DeWitt, by the 1980s this approach seemed to lead nowhere due to perturbative non-renormalizability. The possibility of non-perturbative renormalizability or ''asymptotic safety'', originally suggested by Weinberg but largely ignored for two decades, was revived towards the e...
