According to general expectation, general relativity as well as quantum (field) theory in a fixed background spacetime cannot be fundamentally correct. Hence there should exist a broader theory comprising both in appropriate limits, i.e., quantum gravity. This book gives readers a comprehensive introduction accessible to interested non-experts to the main issues surrounding the search for quantum gravity. These issues relate to fundamental questions concerning the various formalisms of quantization; specific questions concerning concrete processes, like gravitational collapse or black-hole evaporation; and the all important question concerning the possibility of experimental tests of quantum-gravity effects.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;631Quantum field theoryString theoryDifferential geometryGravitationElementary particles (Physics)Quantum Field Theories, String Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048Differential Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21022Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029Quantum field theory.String theory.Differential geometry.Gravitation.Elementary particles (Physics).Quantum Field Theories, String Theory.Differential Geometry.Classical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory.Elementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.530.14/3Giulini Domenico J.
