4.0 out of 5 stars
The 3rd edition is much better
I agree with the earlier reviews about the number of typos and lack of solutions for problems. Most of the typos have been corrected in the newer edition, but not all. And of course solutions to the problems would be wonderful, or at least the answers. I think the book is now worth buying.

Frustrating
There are a lot of typographic errors in my copy of this book. The errors in cross-references are merely annoying; those that appear in equations are likely confound the novice. There are, of course, exercises presented in each chapter, but no solutions. Not even a simple appendix containing the final answers.

This book is a waste of money! I am currently an under-grad looking for some tutorial help for my Quantum course and purchased the book without reviewing Amazon's feedback reviews. Wish I would have done so before I bought it. Although this book provides some example questions with solutions, they are few. And the chapter problems don't have any answers to examine. This author or publisher needs to re-think their approach.

Horrible!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mathematics for Physical Chemistry, Second Edition (Paperback)
I agree with Mr. Jones. I am an undergraduate taking physical chemistry and I find it extremely frustrating that there are so many typos in this book and there are absolutely no answers given. I have also noticed that Mortimer uses different variables for cylindrical and spherical coordinates than any other source I have consulted.

This textbook was pretty expensive and is pretty easy to understand. But it doesn't even have colored pictures.
