Information About
Superstring theory, i.e., the E8 x E8 heterotic superstring - could be a "theory of everything." It incorporates almost all fashionable ideas ranging from axions and grand unification to supergravity and extra dimensions. This volume seeks to present a coherent presentation of the basic literature on Superstring theory.
