This book provides the reader with a contemporary and comprehensive
introduction to Quantum Mechanics. It is suitable for beginners as
well as for more advanced university students. Quantum mechanics is
presented in a pedagogical fashion, with a clear logical
organization. The various concepts and methods are introduced first
in elementary terms, and later developed into more precise
formulations. Systematic studies of approximation methods and the
discussion of a wide class of physical applications follow. Part I
of the book, together with the opening sections of Part II, provide
adequate material for an introductory course of one semester at
most universities. The rest of the book might be used in an
advanced course on Quantum Mechanics. The basic material is fairly
standard, even though some discussions such as those on general
systems with time-dependent Hamiltonians, on metastable systems, as
well as the discussions in some of the Complement sections, may not
be found in other textbooks. The book also contains many original
observations or new ways of illustrating even well-known subjects.
In fact, the authors wish to convey in this book the sense of
wonder in the logical simplicity and at the same time the beauty of
subtle and far-reaching consequences of Quantum Mechanics, to young
physics students in particular. Problem sets are provided at the
end of each chapter, to be solved either analytically or by
numerical methods. The solutions to both types of problems are
given as separate pdf files or as Mathematica notebooks (there are
88 of them), all together on a CD accompanying the textbook. The
presence of such a collection of numerical analyses enriches the
main text and is one of the characteristic features of the book.
With the many interesting systems discussed, the book will also be
a useful reference for researchers and teachers. It provides the
reader with a unique, enjoyable and rather complete textbook of
Quantum Mechanics, destined to set a new standard for many years to
come.
