Description:"pedagogical and accessible"--Nathan Seiberg, Professor, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, New Jersey"an excellent book"--Andreas Karch, Professor, University of Washington"provides remarkable insights into technical aspects of the subject, but also into the most basic conceptual questions which trouble both new students and more mature researchers"--Michael Dine, Professor, University of California, Santa Cruz　This authoritative, advanced introduction provides a complete, modern perspective on quantum mechanics. It clarifies many common misconceptions regarding wave/particle duality and the correct interpretation of measurements. The author develops the text from the ground up, starting from the fundamentals and presenting information at an elementary level, avoiding unnecessarily detailed and complex derivations in favor of simple, clear explanations. He begins in the simplest context of a two-state system and shows why quantum mechanics is inevitable, and what its relationship is to classical mechanics. He also outlines the decoherence approach to interpreting quantum mechanics.Distinguishing features:Provides a thorough grounding in the principles and practice of quantum mechanics, including a core understanding of the behavior of atoms, molecules, solids, and light.Utilizes easy-to-follow examples and analogies to illustrate important concepts.Helps develop an intuitive sense for the field, by guiding the reader to understand how the correct formulas reduce to the non-relativistic ones.Includes numerous worked examples and problems for each chapter.　 Thomas Banks　is a theoretical physicist at　University of California, Santa Cruz　and a professor at　Rutgers University. He earned his PhD in　physics from the　Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and has been a visiting scholar at the　Institute for Advanced Study　in Princeton, New Jersey. Professor Banks is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and is an elected member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
