Introduction to Quantum Field Theory
by Matthew Schwartz
Publisher: Harvard University 2008
Number of pages: 262
Description:
The approach I will take in this course is to emphasize that Quantum Field Theory is first and foremost a tool for performing practical calculations. In this regard, I will try to emphasize the physical problems which have driven the historical development of the field, and to show how they can be solved.

Algebraic Quantum Field Theory
by Hans Halvorson, Michael Mueger - arXiv
This paper is a survey of AQFT, with an orientation towards foundational topics. In addition to covering the basics of the theory, we discuss issues related to nonlocality, the particle concept, the field concept, and inequivalent representations.

Introduction to Nonequilibrium Quantum Field Theory
by J. Berges - arXiv
An introduction to functional integral techniques and how they can be applied in practice. Though we focus on particle physics and cosmology applications, we emphasize that these techniques can be equally applied to other nonequilibrium phenomena.
