We have also drawn on some ideas from the booksString Theory andM- Theory (Becker, Becker and Schwarz), Introduction to String Theory (Polchinski), String Theory in a Nutshell(McMahon) andSuperstring Theory (Green, Schwarz andWitten), along with the lecture notes of David Tong, sometimes Motivation for String What is String Types of String Outline of the Manuscript92.
