"[This] is an excellent invitation to the wide area of modern quantum field theory, and even provides the mature field theoretician with interesting insights and connections. To the curious student, it is a near-perfect companion to spice up the world of quantum field theory, especially particle physics, beyond the standard presentations. . . .

  • Good but not good enough

    I bought this book for a class, but I wouldn't recommend it as a stand alone book. If you've already learned most of the subject from some other source (say, Srednicki's or Peskin and Schroeder's books), then this book is a good read. It skips most of the math and focuses on the physics, which is something most other books don't do. So it's definitely a good complement. If you are just curious about QFT but don't really need to use it for anything, then, again, this is a good book. It will give you a good general idea of all topics, without getting into the mathematical details that are unnecessary for forming a general impression of the subject. But if you're going to be using QFT to study some other topic, for your research, etc, then this book is not enough. You'll basically have to ...
