An Introduction to Particle Physics and the Standard Model by Robert Mann
Emphasizing the connections between particle physics and the rest of the physics field, this book provides an organizational framework for understanding modern particle physics. It presents a standard model of strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions.… thoroughly recommended for a final-year specialist or first-year postgraduate study level especially for those engaged in experimental high energy physics researchThe author has performed an excellent service in making accessible the language and results of field theory applied to elementary particle physics.

The first chapter shows how clearly the author can write and even though the subject matter gets more complex through the book, the clarity continues. … giv[es] readers greater insights into how the maths and the reality match (or don’t match!) and hopefully exciting them into further consideration of what may be ‘hidden behind the curtain’. … while most of the book is limited to final year and postgraduate students, the first and last chapters of the book should be accessible to any interested reader wanting to understand the present knowledge and future directions of particle physics. The author has intended the book to be used as a course of study … he has used the material himself in this way with success for two decades. … Every chapter ends with … well thought out, relevant questions …
