Review # 1 was written on 2014-03-31 00:00:00 Tim Barett I saw this book in a list of recommended titles following the purchase of another volume on quantum mechanics, and thought, "Why not?" I was very pleasantly surprised to see how accessible it turns out to be! I would recommend this book for anyone looking to drop into the lively art and science of quantum mechanical calculations, which are essential to gaining an understanding of what quantum mechanics is. Very readable and well-developed with the intelligent beginner in mind.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-06-03 00:00:00 JuanCarlos Planas If you're into stuff like this, you can read the full review. In the 15th chapter the key to Quantum Mechanics (QM). It was Richard Feynman who said, "I think it is safe to say that nobody understands Quantum Mechanics." This book does not help either. Quantum mechanics is the spookiest theoretical framework ever devised by man. Cats that are at the same time alive and dead ("Superposition" = "We do not know"; "Collapsing the superposition" = "finding out" whether the cat is alive and kicking), objects that are both particles and waves, etc. 3 stars for the two chapters dealing with the 1927 and 1930 Solvay conferences.
