Preface to the Sixth Edition
The original chapters on deep inelastic scattering were formulated in 1993. Since this time a large amount of new experimental data have been obtained at the Electron-Proton Collider HERA at DESY in Hamburg. In summer of 2007 the Collider was turned off. The chapters 7 and 8 were partially rewritten as to include the most spectacular new results on deep inelastic scattering. I would like to thank Tina Pollmann for preparing the figures and J¨ urgen Sawinski for the formatting of the Sixth Edition.

Preface to the Fourth and the Fifth Edition
In the last two editions we included new results on the neutrino oscillations as evidence for a non-vanishing mass of the neutrinos. In the present edition we have rewritten the chapter on “Phenomenology of the Weak Interaction” (Chapter 10) in order to give a coherent presentation of the neutrino properties. Furthermore, we extended the chapter on “Nuclear Thermodynamics” (Chapter 19).
