This is a good book. It is rather short, very direct, which is a good thing. At some points it is slightly too direct, but to a large extent it gets it right.

The main goal of the book is to basically to build the <Standard Model Lagrangian> from only initial <symmetry> considerations, notably the <Poincaré group> + <internal symmetries>.

The book doesn't really <doing physics means calculating a number>[show how to extract numbers from that Lagrangian], but perhaps that can be pardoned, <do one thing and do it well>.
