This book discusses the physical phases of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) in ordinary environments and also in extreme environments of high temperatures and high baryon number. It introduces lattice gauge theory, covering fundamentals and important developments, and emphasises the application of QCD to the study of matter in extreme environments.
