David Tong does a good job explaining background physics and his notes can be found here: http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/tong/teaching.html http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/tong/teaching.html The fourth chapter of his string theory notes are about as approachable an introduction to conformal field theory that there is. His QFT notes are good too.
