This is a modern, and relatively comprehensive introductory textbook on Quantum Mechanics. It is intended to correct the lack of such a book today, in spite of the ever-increasing importance of the subject in contemporary science, technology, and everyday life. With its clear, pedagogical presentation, and with many examples discussed and problems solved both analytically or with numerical methods, the book is a unique and enjoyable textbook on Quantum Mechanics, useful for physics students, researchers and teachers alike.

About the Author
K. Konishi obtained his first degree at the Kyoto University, Kyoto, in 1969; and successively attended the graduate course at the Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa, 1971-1974, obtaining the "Diploma di Perfezionamento" (Ph D) in 1974.
He was awarded Ph D from the Kyoto University, in 1975. After a long term position at INFN, Pisa, he got a full professorship at University of Genova in 1987. In 1998 Konishi moved to Univ. of Pisa. In 2000 he was awarded the Nishina momerial prize, for his work on "Konishi Anomaly".
G. Paffuti obtained his degree at the University of Pisa in 1976 (laurea in fisica). He got an assistant professorship in 1980; and associate professorship in 1985, both in University of Pisa. Since 2002 he has been a full professor at University of Pisa. During 1985-1987 he was a fellow at CERN.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Highly Recommend...Do not miss it...,

This review is from: Quantum Mechanics: A New Introduction (Paperback)
I think this book excels in the chapter of Perturbation Methods, for its concise and beautiful derivation. However, the book is still favorable on many aspects: the lucid explanation, closer interaction with cutting-edge research, and the richness of the supplements. The authors are so talented and experienced on mastering and organizing huge amount of materials and interpret the profound in a pedagogical manner. I just hope every beginner won't miss this brilliant book and enjoy it, learn from it.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A fine book on quantum mechanics.,
This review is from: Quantum Mechanics: A New Introduction (Paperback)
This is a good book on quantum mechanics. Some of the derivations and perspectives are original and thought-provoking. Readers are expected to have a working knowledge of classical mechanics and electromagnetism. Highly recommended.
