Book Description

0582444985 978-0582444980 March 1989
This volume discusses the principles of non-relativistic quantum mechanics, featuring a variety of approximation methods and the application of these methods to simple systems occuring in atomic, nuclear and solid state physics. In conclusion the authors discuss some of the difficulties that arise in the interpretation of quantum theory. Problem sets are provided to cover the most important topics and so help the student to monitor his understanding of the theory.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good pedagogical introduction, November 28, 1999
This review is from: Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (Paperback)
This text is a good beginning along with Liboffs text for undergraduates in physics. If you want supplement with feynman's lectures in physics #3 for a physically intuitive picture of qm. Bransdden and Joachain present the essential information often left out in griffiths etc. For example, a definitive push into bra-ket notation and reasonable mention of heienberg vs schroedinger pictures as well as some hints of group theory.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent intro to the formal theory of Quantum Mechanics., March 21, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (Paperback)
This text covers the introduction to the formal theory of Quantum Mechanics very thoroughly at the level of the advanced undergraduate. The later sections covering atomic and molecular physics are adequate, though more complete treatments are available elsewhere

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Overall Introduction to Quantum Mechanics, June 14, 2004
By 
Christopher E. Naujok (Hudson, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Introduction to Quantum Mechanics (Paperback)
The most readable introductory text to quantum mechanics that I have found. It covers all the core basic topics with great clarity and builds up the subject through clear examples and demonstrations. I would strongly recommend it for anyone's physics library.
