String Theory Wiki

Welcome to the String Theory Wiki! This wiki is aimed at students learning string theory. It lists and reviews useful string theory resources, such as books and review papers. The content was initially based on Alberto Guijosa Hidalgo's list of string reviews.

A wiki is a webpage which users can edit (like the encyclopedia Wikipedia). To edit a page, log in and then click on the "edit" tab at the top of the page.
