Contents:

1. The symmetries of space-time -- 2. The classical free particle -- 3. The lagrangian theory of fields -- 4. Klein-Gordon field quantisation -- 5. Electromagnetic field quantisation -- 6. The Dirac equation -- 7. Quantisation of the Dirac field -- 8. Free field progagators -- 9. Interactions -- 10. Time evolution of quantum systems -- 11. Relativistic perturbation theory -- 12. The discrete symmetries: P, C, T -- 13. Weyl and majorana neurtinos -- 14. Applications: QED -- 15. Applications: weak interactions -- 16. Neutrino oscillations -- Appendix.

Summary: This book provides a classroom-tested introduction to the formal and conceptual foundations of quantum field theory. Designed for advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level physics students, the text only requires previous courses in classical mechanics, relativity, and quantum mechanics.
