Book on Feynmann diagrammatica and renormalization group

In summary, Feynman diagrammatica is a mathematical tool used in quantum field theory, while renormalization group theory is a framework used to study physical systems at different length scales. The purpose of a book on these topics is to provide a comprehensive understanding of these concepts and their applications in theoretical physics. The target audience is scientists and researchers in the fields of theoretical physics, and the benefits of studying these concepts include a deeper understanding of quantum field theory and improved problem-solving skills. A strong background in mathematics and basic understanding of quantum mechanics and classical mechanics are necessary prerequisites for reading this book.

i would need some good books (with examples) in the following subjects

- Feynman diagramas (how to calculate them)

- Renormalization group

my background: i have got a degree on physics, so i know what ODE , PDE , or even the Feynman integral and propagator, but i did not study the part of 'renormalization' and 'Feynmann graphs'

which are the applications you are looking for? Particle Physics? many body physics?

There's a Dover book by Mattuck, "A Guide to Feynman Diagrams in the Many-Body Problem" which I think will meet your requirements.
