-Here's a plan of how to understand the renormalization group effectively and quickly: 
  
-  - First, have a look at http://​philosophy.wisc.edu/​forster/​Percolation.pdf 
-  - Then read http://​jakobschwichtenberg.com/​renormalization-group-flow/​ 
-  - Then, the best complete introduction can be found in Critical point phenomena: universal physics at large length scales by Bruce, A.; Wallace, D. published in the book The new physics, edited by P. Davies 
-  - Afterwards read https://​www.andrew.cmu.edu/​user/​kk3n/​found-phys-emerge.pdf which explains lucidly many of the most important "​advanced"​ concepts. 
-  - See also "​[[https://​www.physics.ohio-state.edu/​~ntg/​8805/​refs/​weinberg_rg_good_thing.pdf|Why the Renormalization Group Is a Good Thing]]"​ by S. Weinberg 
-  - [[https://​inspirehep.net/​record/​109631|Critical Phenomena for Field Theorists]] by Steven Weinberg 
-  - Also the video course: [[https://​www.complexityexplorer.org/​tutorials/​67-introduction-to-renormalization/​segments/​5681|Introduction to Renormalization]] by Simon DeDeo is highly recommended to understand how the renormalization group can be used in other fields than physics.
