"Elegantly written, with obvious appreciation for fine points of higher mathematics ... most notable is [the] author's effort to weave classical probability theory into [a] quantum framework."--The American Mathematical Monthly "This is an excellent volume which will be a valuab…
"This book is a quantum mechanics text, written on the assumption that the purpose of learning quantum mechanics is to be able to understand the results of fundamental research into the constitution of the physical world. The text essentially concerns itself with three themes, t…
Perhaps the two most important conceptual breakthroughs in twentieth century physics are relativity and quantum mechanics. Developing a theory that combines the two seamlessly is a difficult and ongoing challenge. This accessible book contains intriguing explorations of this the…
