Table of Contents1: Introduction: Three Worlds 2: The Quantum Postulates 3: What is a Quantum State? 4: The Structure of Quantum States 5: Operators 6: Matrix Mechanics 7: Commutators and Uncertainty Relations 8: Angular Momentum 9: The Time-independent Schrödinger Equation 10: Why is the State Complex? 11: Time Evolution 12: Wavefunctions AppendicesReviewsVery well written, clear and to the point, and just at the right level to fill the regrettable gap between the maths-free popular books on quantum mechanics and the full courses in most textbooks. Jeremy Butterfield, University of Cambridge This book should be useful for undergraduate and graduate students in quantum mechanics, mathematics, materials science and Chemistry. CERN Courier, If you teach quantum mechanics, you should read this book. If you are studying quantum mechanics, you should read this book. If you are vaguely interested in quantum mechanics, you should read this book. Everyone should read this book. Why? Because in this book you will find the fundamentals and the structure of quantum mechanics explained directly and clearly, with you in mind, without the naive tone of those common popularizations centered on the weirdness of the quantum [...] I wish I had had this little book (200 pages!) when I started studying quantum mechanics. [...] I find this book suitable as an uncluttered textbook for an Introduction to quantum mechanics undergraduate course in physics and engineering. David J.
