Here is a list of questions that have been posted in the past concerning Peskin & Schroeder, An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory. If you have a question about the book, you can look here first to see if it has already been answered. One caveat, sometimes the page numbering that I used can be arbitrary. If there is a question on a page near your page, you should look there just in case.

Here is the errata page for the book:
Errata page: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~mpeskin/QFT.html

Here is a summary of the chapters by Patrick Van Esch (PF member vanesch) along with problem solutions.
