Book Overview

A revision of a successful junior/senior level text, this introduction to elementary quantum mechanics clearly explains the properties of the most important quantum systems. Emphasizes the applications of theory, and contains new material on particle physics, electron-positron annihilation in solids and the Mossbauer effect. Includes new appendices on such topics as crystallography, Fourier Integral Description of a Wave Group, and Time-Independent Perturbation Theory.

Great introduction, focused on understanding

This book is an excellent introduction to Quantum Physics. This book gives the non-expert reader an insight into the tremendous explanatory power of quantum mechanics. It describes why and how Quantum Mechanics was developed, and it is primarily concerned with the understanding of concepts and ideas, rather than focusing on mathematical techniques. For this reason it might appear a little verbose to some readers.The first...

One of the best

This is one of the best introductory quantum mechanics textbooks. Since the mid-twentieth century, the tendency to avoid philosophical problems in favor of sheer calculation--a tendency supported by Dirac's famous maxim "follow the mathematics"--has resulted in increasingly terse books laden with practical formulae. There may be no returning to the period in which calculation and meditation went hand in hand, but at least...

an Excellent Introductory Book

This book is perfect for introduction to Quantum Physics, especially for those who want to go into the subject step by step with an understanding of Physical concepts behind it. Most books I have seen basically are dry Mathematical Formulas which requires a lot to reading into formulas to get the real physical meaning behind those formulas. This book is perfect it tells you why certain things can not be explained by Classical...

Clear Introduction to Quantum Physics

I am using Eisberg's and Resnick's text to review quantum physics. I am particularly impressed by the author's development of plausibility arguements for the mathematics before developing the mathematics itself. I found the first couple of chapters a bit laborious, but the succeeding chapters are very well-written. I was particularly impressed by the chapter on Schroedinger's Theory of Quantum Mechanics and the chapter...

Clarity makes this book ideal.

This book served as the text for an undergraduate course in quantum physics. It is very readable; Eisberg uses the perfect mix of formal mathematics and qualitative analysis to paint a very coherent picture of quantum mechanics. Each argument is thoughtfully constructed to be both rigorous and lucid. Well worth the price to any serious student of physics.
