  This note is based on the summary of our book entitled "Non-perturbative
field theoryfrom two dimensional conformal field theory to QCD in four
dimensions", published recently by Cambridge University Press. It includes 436
pages.
  The book provides a detailed description of the tool box of non-perturbative
techniques, presents applications of them to simplified systems, mainly of
gauge dynamics in two dimensions, and examines the lessons one can learn from
those systems about four dimensional QCD and hadron physics.
  In particular the book deals with conformal invariance, integrability,
bosonization, large N, solitons in two dimensions and monopoles and instantons
in four dimensions, confinement versus screening and finally the hadronic
spectrum and scattering.
  We also attach the table of contents and the list of references of the book.
  We would be grateful for any comments or suggestions related to the material
in the book. These may be incorporated in a possible future edition. They may
be sent via the e-mails below.
