5.0 out of 5 stars Introduction to Quantum Mechanics for physicists, May 15, 2000
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...
