Quantum Mechanics- central not only to physics but also chemistry, materials science and other fields- is notoriously abstract and difficult. Essential Quantum Mechanics is a uniquely concise and explanatory book that fills the gap between introductory and advanced courses, between popularizations and technical treatises. By focusing on the fundamental structure, concepts and methods of quantum mechanics this introductory yet sophisticated work emphasizes both physical and matehmeatical understanding. A modern perspective is adopted throughout-the goal in part, being to gain entry into the world of "real" quantum mechanics, as used by practicing scientists. With over 60 original problems, Essential Quantum Mechanics is suitable as either a text or a reference. It will be invaluable to physics students as well as chemists, electrical engineers, philosophers, and others whose work is impacted by quantum mechanics, or who simply wish to better understand this fascinating subject.

Industry Reviews

`This book should be useful for undergraduate and graduate students in quantum mechanics, mathematics, materials science and Chemistry.' CERN Courier, `Very 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
