"Absolute lifesaver to a student who needs to get the basics quickly and see some worked examples. Will need more than this to go into quantum mechanics seriously, but this definitely gives a helping hand to mastering the maths of quantum mechanics."
You breeze through the pages and if you were somebody with no previous exposure to quantum mechanics, you will have a great time as you understanding and solving the problems. You would ask yourself, "How could this be so easy?"
You would definitely conclude that quantum mechanics is no big deal though others say it is difficult.
It ranks in my assessment as an excellent first reader compared to Liboff's Quantum Mechanics.
The notations are simplified and the teaching of the concepts go straight to the point with avoidance of jargon and concepts that interfere with the learning process.
I'd say no matter how abstract the concepts are presented in other books, this book cuts to the chase.
I would highly recommend it as a first reader for anyone desiring to pursue a program in this field.
The author is a very knowledgeable physicist plus his ability to teach this misunderstood subject is welcome to all students everywhere. He has other books that extend the field to quantum field theory, string theory and relativity theory. With these books at my disposal, I know that he has made a major contribution in the teaching of advanced physics accessible to users and sophomore level students of physics and engineering worldwide."
