The translation of this well-known French textbook introduces physics students to the field of quantum mechanics. The work is now being published in its third edition. Each chapter consists of two parts. In the first part, the fundamental postulates and concepts are introduced. In the second part, the basic knowledge of quantum mechanics is conveyed by means of numerous applications. The work is a both a textbook and a workbook, and is also suited as a reference work for professionals in the field. - Translation of the well-known and timeless work by Nobel Prize winner Cohen-Tannoudji and his co-authors. - Unique two-part chapter structure, with part one consisting of basic concepts, and part two consisting of exercises and an explanation of applications within the field of physics

Introduction to Quantum Mechanics for physicists,
By Armand Niederberger (Lausanne, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quantenmechanik (Hardcover)
This is an excellent introduction by Nobel-Prize winning Claude Cohen-Tannoudji. The aim of this book (two volumes!) is to explain quantum mechanics on a mathematically adequate level (Hilbert, Dirac, Fourier and co.). Read this book if you have the necessary mathematical background or if you are willing to get into it - but still: this is primarily a book for physicists and mathematicians, not for laymen! If you prefer a more "biological" (i.e more hand-waving, less math) introduction to quantum mechanics refer to e.g. the third volume by Richard Feynman.Note that this is some kind of must-know book for quantum mechanics - at least over here in Europe. Many professors base their lectures on this book and recommend reading it for a better understanding of quantum mechanics because they don't have time to cover all the subjects covered in the book...
