SUMMARY

The discussion centers on recommendations for further reading in Quantum Field Theory (QFT) after completing Steven Weinberg's books. Participants suggest starting with more introductory texts, specifically highlighting "Quantum Field Theory and Statistical Mechanics" by Schwartz as a suitable option. Additionally, "Quantum Field Theory" by Ryder and "An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory" by Peskin & Schroeder are mentioned, though the latter has noted issues with typos and conceptual inaccuracies. Overall, these recommendations aim to bridge the gap for readers struggling with Weinberg's complex material.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with Quantum Field Theory concepts
  • Understanding of basic quantum mechanics principles
  • Knowledge of advanced mathematical techniques used in physics
  • Experience with reading academic physics literature
NEXT STEPS
  • Read "Quantum Field Theory and Statistical Mechanics" by Schwartz
  • Explore "Quantum Field Theory" by Ryder for additional insights
  • Investigate "An Introduction to Quantum Field Theory" by Peskin & Schroeder
  • Study introductory materials on QFT to solidify foundational knowledge
USEFUL FOR

Students and researchers in theoretical physics, particularly those seeking to deepen their understanding of Quantum Field Theory after studying Weinberg's complex texts.

Please give me some advisory about the book: Structural aspects of QFT and Noncommutative Geometry of Gerhard Grensing. I am reading QFT book of Weinberg and I have no idea to continue to read which book in QFT after finishing the Weinberg's books.

P.S I feel the QFT books of Weinberg are difficult!
 
Then you should read a more introductory book on QFT. My favorite at the moment is the pretty new book by Schwartz. Another good one is Ryder and (with some caveats concerning a lot of typos and conceptual inaccuracies) Peskin&Schroeder.

I don't know any better book than Weinberg's on that matter yet.
