Description

We review chiral dynamics for low energy hadron physics. After a brief look at the standard theory for strong and weak interactions, we discuss chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking in some detail. Applications of the chiral perturbation theory to the strong interaction physics is the main subject. We also discuss some weak interaction processes. (author)
