A Good Book on The Standard Model?

AI Thread Summary
A physics undergraduate in their fourth year seeks a comprehensive yet accessible textbook on the Standard Model of particle physics, emphasizing a balance between mathematical rigor and theoretical understanding. They have a foundational knowledge of quantum dynamics and are comfortable with calculus and differential equations. Two recommended texts are "Introduction to Elementary Particles" by David Griffiths and "An Introduction to the Standard Model of Particle Physics" by W. N. Cottingham and D. A. Greenwood, both of which cater to students looking for a challenge without being overly complex.

I am looking for a decent book (probably a textbook) that covers the standard model in its entirety (not necessarily in its vast detail, though). I am a physics undergrad in my 4th year, so I'm looking for something that gets into specific math and theory, but obviously not something that would be too over my head (a bit over my head is fine, i like a challenge!). I have taken introductory material to quantum dynamics, but not much. I am also adept at calculus and differential equations. Please let me know!
