Product Description
Product Description
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.

I completed my BSc Physics degree in 1993 and, as a hard-up student, I had to part with some of my more valuable books. I vowed that one day, however far removed from June 1993, I would renew my acquaintance with Messrs. Eisberg and Resnick.
Well that day has come. Today I bought a brand new copy from Amazon. I can't wait. It really is a great book that explains this potentially difficult subject in clear, easy-to-read English. A must-have for any Physics undergraduate, and a nice-to-own for 30-somethings that are trying to refresh their memories of this fascinating field.

If you are studying Quantum Mechanics at 3rd year undergrad level & are having problems getting to grips with the mathematics or concepts, then this is the book for you. The worked examples are well explained & easy to follow. If a picture speaks a thousand words, then the simple diagrams speak volumes. This book is well presented & I would recommend it to anyone studying quantum mechanics as an invaluable aid, particularly to those studying SM358 with the Open University. My only complaint is that I wish I had found this book at the start of my quantum mechanics module.

I am yet to find a book that looks as impressive in a bookcase, while still being such a fantastic resource. I have recently finished an undergraduate course in physics and have loved this book from the moment I bought it, which is a common view among my peers. I recommend it to anyone who is taking a course in quantum mechanics at the undergraduate level.
The book is clear, consise, and never fails to make sure that the reader understands. The fulfilment gained from reading and understanding a chapter in this book is second to very little when it comes to academic reading.
