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. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x0075-8450 ;$v631 606 $aQuantum field theory 606 $aString theory 606 $aDifferential geometry 606 $aGravitation 606 $aElementary particles (Physics) 606 $aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19048 606 $aDifferential Geometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21022 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19070 606 $aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23029 615 0$aQuantum field theory. 615 0$aString theory. 615 0$aDifferential geometry. 615 0$aGravitation. 615 0$aElementary particles (Physics). 615 14$aQuantum Field Theories, String Theory. 615 24$aDifferential Geometry. 615 24$aClassical and Quantum Gravitation, Relativity Theory. 615 24$aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory. 676 $a530.14/3 702 $aGiulini$b Domenico J.
