Also, less rigorous but very clear (to me) are the two volumes by Bjorken & Drell on Relativistic QM and Quantum Fields. They clear up lots of notation that other authors leave secret. | |

| Jun 22, 2016 at 23:59 | comment | added | Kwarrtz | I would only recommend Dirac for very determined beginners. It is not the most readable. | |

Spelling & reference fix.
