- This is a text for an Advanced Quantum Field Theory course that I have been teaching for many years at Instituto Superior T´ecnico, in Lisbon. This course was first written in Portuguese. Then, at a latter stage, I added some text in one-loop techniques in English.

After a brief survey of particle physics, the quantum theory of scalar and spinor fields and then of gauge fields is developed. Emphasis is on functional methods that have played a large part in modern field theory.

This textbook is probably one of the most readable books on Quantum Field Theory. The level of formalism and mathematical complexity varies from chapter to chapter, which has its virtues and drawbacks. The chapters that are not too math-heavy are usually the more intelligible ones, and they present the otherwise fairly arcane material in a very accessible and physically-motivated fashion. On the other hand these chapters leave out a lot of calculation or just skim through those somewhat superfic...more

Excellent text on quantum fields. I didn't use this as a primary text book, but found it very helpful as a supplementary source on certain topics. The writing is clear and focused, and most important results are derived in balanced detail. Notable sections include the chapter on Renormalization, and the treatment of generating functionals and path integrals in Chapters 6 and 7. The chapter on Single-Particle Relativistic Wave Equations, notably sections 2.3 and 2.7 on the Lie groups of interest...more

Moderately clear exposition. Mathematics fairly well covered, although you have to read some sections over several times to keep track of everything. Shorter than Peskin & Schroeder, and probably a good prerequisite to tackling that 800+ page tome.

A little bit old-fashioned, but very readable and clearly presented, quite suitable for self-study.
