Resources for learning Quantum Field Theory

[aclaret]

hello :)

i would very much like study some quantum field theorie, but have not previously study any regular quantum mechanic (i am not so interest in regular quantum mechanic, but more the relativistic theories).

so i ask, this is possible or not? to what extent knowledge of regular quantum mechanic is prerequisite for the quantum field theorie? any book is good?

I would say you have no chance to learn QFT unless you know a lot of physics and maths. You could, however, take a look at David Tong's notes here. The first pdf is "Preliminaries" and what you need to know.

See whether you can make any sense of that.

yes, everything look familiar apart from quantum mechanic section. i complete rigorous class semester before on the classic mechanic from the book of Spivak 'mechanic for mathematician'.

although what he write about the quantum mechanic not seem so difficult, it just look like operator equation to me :)

ok then, these notes i will begin to read. thank!

Good luck!
