Preface
This is a textbook version of my previous book [190]. Problems and solutions
have been included, Appendix G has been added, more details have been
presented, recent publications on evaluating Feynman integrals have been
taken into account and the bibliography has been updated.
The goal of the book is to describe in detail how Feynman integrals1 can be
evaluated analytically. The problem of evaluating L
