Overview
This introductory course on quantum mechanics is the basic lecture that precedes and completes the author's second book Advanced Quantum Mechanics. This new edition is up-to-date and has been revised. Coverage meets the needs of students by giving all mathematical steps and worked examples with applications throughout the text as well as many problems at the end of each chapter. It contains nonrelativistic quantum mechanics and a short treatment of the quantization of the radiation field. Besides the essentials, the book also discusses topics such as the theory of measurement, the Bell inequality, and supersymmetric quantum mechanics.

Reviews
From the reviews: Any student wishing to develop mathematical skills and deepen their understanding of the technical side of quantum theory will find Schwabl's Quantum Mechanics very helpful . Contemporary Physics From the reviews of the fourth edition: Quantum Mechanics ! presents a nice balance between theory and practical applications in this work that is intended for introductory coursework. It is designed to complement the author's Advanced Quantum Mechanics (2005). Schwabl (Technische Universitat Munchen) succinctly covers a wide range of topics in 20 chapters ! . The book also includes worked examples and applications. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through researchers and faculty. (D. B. Moss, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (10), June, 2008) It is an excellent introduction for students of physics or mathematics into the fundamentals of quantum mechanics covering the methods used in applications. ! The main point is that the fundamentals and methods of quantum mechanics are mediated very well and guide the reader to apply them successfully. This book can be best recommended to students and lecturers. (K.-E. Hellwig, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1166, 2009)
