What is PART I Our physical world about?

Our physical world Preview of part I Quantum field theory emerges from the union of special relativity and quantum mechanics, and so I am obliged to start by telling you a bit about both.First, a lightning overview of the physical universe consisting of particles controlled by four fundamental interactions, the electromagnetic, the strong and the weak, and gravity. Then the notion of field in classical physics, as in the electromagnetic field and the gravitational field.Special relativity is explained in chapters I.3 and I.4. The relevant mathematics does not exceed high school algebra. The "modern" approach to special relativity is through the geometry of spacetime, generalized from the familiar geometry of space with the help of a "valiant piece of chalk." From there we proceed to witness the birth of quantum mechanics.
