Quantum Field Theory by Lewis H. Ryder, Cambridge University Press, 487 pages, Second Edition (1996). Ahluwalia (Los Alamos National Laboratory). The first edition of this book appeared in 1985. To my knowledge this was the the first book that presented a completely modern and logical development of quantum.
