This book provides a philosophically informed and mathematically rigorous introduction to the 'standard model' of particle physics. The standard model is currently being accepted and experimented in our universe. All the elements in the universe, and all the non-gravitational interactions -the strong nuclear force, the weak and the electromagnetic forces, unified in the standard model.

Rather than presenting the calculational recipients, this is a standard model.

· Combines an exposition of the philosophical foundations and the rigorous mathematical structure of particle physics
· Demonstrates the standard model with elegant mathematics, rather than a medley of computational recipes
· Promotes a group-theoretical and fiber-bundle approach to the standard model, rather than the Lagrangian approach favored by calculationalists
· Explains the different approaches to particle physics
