Von der hinteren Coverseite

It would be impossible to learn quantum mechanics from one short book - but you can learn about quantum mechanics. This book is written for exactly that purpose. By the end you will have a much better understanding of what physicists do and think when they do research in quantum mechanics, and what this research tells us about the world we live in.

Much of our technology uses quantum mechanical effects routinely, like lasers and semiconductor microchips, which were produced by the 'first quantum revolution' back in the 20th century. If the current trends hold, we will be soon enough playing with the technological results of the 'second quantum revolution', using even more subtle and bizarre quantum effects. It is therefore wise to be prepared. As a bonus, you will learn about a lot of things that are not taught in introductory quantum mechanics courses to physics undergraduates.

Written by a leading expert, it is a comprehensive introduction providing added-value features like definitions, links, reading lists, quotes and case studies. It supports you as you make sense of the key ideas, encouraging you to develop your understanding and assess your own progress.

Whether you are preparing for an essay, studying for an exam or simply want to expand your knowledge, Quantum Mechanics: A Complete Introduction is your essential guide.

Dr Alexandre Zagoskin is Reader in Quantum Physics at Loughborough University. He has had over 90 refereed articles and two books published on quantum theory of condensed matter, quantum physics and quantum engineering.
