What Are the Best Books on the Development of Quantum Field Theory?

[Son Goku]

I was wondering if anybody could recommend some books which deal with the development of QFT.
I'm almost finished Schweber's "QED and the men who made it", which I found excellent, however it only deals with QED.
So are there any other good histories of QFT?

And is there a "History of QCD" book, which is to QCD what Schweber's book is to QED.

The first chapter in Weinberg's first volume of his QFT book is also a useful reading...

Thanks, I picked it up in my university library, it's exactly what I wanted.

I also picked this up, the history section is a little terse, obviously though since it is an exposition on the subject itself.
However, even though I don't know anywhere near the level of knowledge in this text or understand half the mathematics, it has shown me how far QFT goes. I won't be happy until I know QFT to this level.
Thanks for pointing it out.
