A First Course in Quantum Mechanics: Nonrelativistic Theory


Overview

Based on years of teaching experience, this book provides a clearly structured and accessible introduction to the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, tailored for undergraduate students. The text builds a strong conceptual and mathematical foundation while promoting intuitive understanding and critical thinking. Students progress from basic concepts such as wave mechanics to more advanced topics within matrix mechanics. Complex concepts are presented in a diligent and understandable way, achieving a balance between conceptual insight and mathematical rigor without oversimplifying the subject. Thoroughly class-tested, this book is designed to support both classroom instruction and independent study. It will serve as a great tool for undergraduates studying introductory and intermediate quantum mechanics, as well as modern physics and quantum systems for engineers.

Author Information

Prof. Ahmad Amer is a theoretical physicist and educator specializing in quantum electrodynamics and mathematical physics. He earned his Ph.D. in mathematical and physical sciences from the faculty of physics, Moscow State University, where his research focused on quantum field theory and quark model. With more than 20 years of teaching experience at the undergraduate and graduate levels, Prof. Amer has guided students through the complexities of quantum theory using a clear and pedagogically sound approach. His work emphasizes both the mathematical structure and physical intuition behind quantum mechanics. He has published several research articles in peer-reviewed journals and contributed to curriculum development in modern physics. A First Course in Quantum Mechanics: Nonrelativistic Theory is his first book designed to bridge the gap between abstract formalism and hands-on problem solving for students encountering quantum mechanics for the first time. Currently, Prof. Amer serves as a full professor at the Mathematics Department, Faculty of Science, Cairo University, Egypt, where he continues to teach, mentor students, and develop educational resources in theoretical physics.
