Lsc Quantum Mechanics

Had this text for an Intro to QM course - not a good choice for the "Intro" part. Goswami covers all the bases but his organization of material seems a little discombobulated. I can see this text being reasonable for a second QM course, but not as an intro. Griffiths or Liboff is better for this purpose.

An excellent introduction to QM by an expert in this subject, with also foundational issues covered, its probably the best intro QM book ever written along with Griffith, it makes you think and excite about QM unlike any other drab QM book.Not only does this book equip the reader with operational tools but also covers epistemological aspects of it.A MUST BUY FOR ANY ASPIRING PHYSICIST, ALSO FOR ONE AIMING TO DO WELL IN THE PHYSICS QUALIFIERS.

This is a fairly complete treatment of QM. The only downside is that it is somewhat too advanced for an intro to the subject, but not rigorous enough for an advanced treatment. However, I used this book as a "backup" to Sakurai in a graduate level QM course. In that role it was flawless. It could also be used as a supplement to Griffith's QM book (which is extremely good but has some logical/mathematical flaws). In this case it would be serving as an "advanced" introduction.

This is an intermediate level undergraduate textbook which is distinguished by the author's serious interest in interpretational issues, e.g. EPR, Schrodinger's Cat, 'quantum consciousness.' I say 'serious' because he is discussing these issues within the context of a fairly complete introduction to Quantum Mechanics. However, the book is caught (in a catch-22) between more advanced (and abstract) treatments and the 'wave mechanics' approach. Students not already familiar with some of the details may have trouble filling in what the author has left out. Advanced students will want a more abstract development. Thus, the book may be more useful as a reference on topics not usually treated at this level.
