About This Book

This introduction to quantum mechanics is both reader-friendly and complete. Tit covers the conceptual and philosophical aspects of quantum mechanics before gently presenting the mathematics underlying the subject. After a chapter on the history of the theory, the whole of quantum mechanics is then presented, followed by applications of the theory and a revision chapter.
