[QUOTE="BiGyElLoWhAt, post: 6823317, member: 496972"] I didn't notice that you had edited in this addition. I actually have "[URL='https://www.amazon.com/dp/019969933X/?tag=pfamazon01-20']Quantum Field Theory - for the Gifted Amateur[/URL]" by Lancaster & Blundell. Actually, I believe I got this particular one based off of a book recommendation thread here on PF. However, I bought this book well in advance of my ability to use it (~5-7 years ago), and have only recently been able to understand and follow what were on the pages. I definitely understand the value in following one train all the way through. I do, as well, have a bad habit of jumping around between sources. However, the way people explain things differently, I find valuable. Take the way Leonard Susskind (Stanford) teaches GR vs. the way Alex Flournoy (Colorado Mines) teaches GR. Susskind places a significantly larger emphasis on the conceptual bits, and Flournoy places a significantly larger emphasis on the mathematical elements. Susskind ##\cup## Flournoy would, in my opinion, be one of the best educators on this subject matter. [/QUOTE]
