This small book started a profound revolution in the development of mathematical physics, one which has reached many working physicists already, and which stands poised to bring about far-reaching change in the future. At its heart is the use of Clifford algebra to unify otherwise disparate mathematical languages, particularly those of spinors, quaternions, tensors and differential forms. It provides a unified approach covering all these areas and thus leads to a very efficient `toolkit' for use in physical problems including quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, electromagnetism and relativity (both special and general) - only one mathematical system needs ...
