　　《经典域论和应力：能量张量（英文）》是一部版权引进的英文原版物理学专著，中文书名可译为《经典域论和应力一能量张量》。《经典域论和应力：能量张量（英文）》作者是马克·S.斯旺森（Mark S.Swanson），他是美国康涅狄格大学物理学名誉教授。他的个人简介如下：马克·S.斯旺森于1976年在密苏里州哥伦比亚大学获得物理学博士学位，在埃德蒙顿的阿尔伯塔大学获得博士后学位，他于1979年加入康涅狄格大学的物理系，研究重点是正则量子化技术与路径积分的函数方法之间的关系，他编写了专著《路径积分与量子过程》，此外，他还担任过斯坦福德校区主任和副院长等行政职务，他于2014年退休，现在是名誉物理学教授，他与妻子一起住在康涅狄格州，在那里他继续从事与物理学、计算机编程有关的工作，并以弹吉他为乐。

　　Mark Swanson， received his PhD in physics from the University of Missouri at Columbia in 1976. After a post-doctoral appointment at the University of Alberta in Edmonton， he joined the physics department at the University of Connecticut in 1979. His research focused on the relationship between canonical quantization techniques and the functional approach of path integrals， which led to authoring the monograph 'Path Integrals and Quantum Processes'. In addition， he served in administrative capacity as the Stamford Campus director and an associate dean. He retired in 2014 and is now emeritus professor of physics. He lives in Connecticut with his wife where he continues to work on physics， programming computers， and amusing himself with the guitar.
