Abstract NoteThe purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare the reader for research in string theory. It is intended??as a textbook in the sense that, starting from the basics, the material is presented in a pedagogical and??self-contained fashion. The emphasis is on the world-sheet perspective of closed strings and of open strings ending on D-branes, where two-dimensional conformal field theory is the main tool.??Compactifications of string theory, with and without fluxes, and string dualities are also discussed from the space-time??point of view, i.e. in geometric language. End-of-chapter references have been added to guide the reader intending to pursue further??studies or to start research in the topics covered by this book
