Quantum Mechanics 2nd Edition by Amit Goswami | (PDF) Free Download

Description

In an effort to excite college seniors and first-year graduate students about the essence of quantum mechanics, Goswami always begins a topic with what students know before moving into more complex areas. He teaches students how to ask the right questions, satisfying their interest in the meaning and interpretation of quantum mechanics, and treats the nitty-gritty details carefully. The unifying approach of the book presents quantum mechanics not only as a schema for successful calculations and predictions but also as a basis for a new and exciting worldview. The most unusual aspect of the book is an ongoing presentation of the radicalness of quantum mechanics as compared to classical physics. Outstanding features: 1) gives a thorough grounding in the fundamental aspects of quantum mechanics; 2) provides a wealth of worked-out examples; 3) offers a balanced presentation of quantum system, which helps students make a bridge to whichever aspect of modern physics they want to pursue; 4) goes into enough depth without exceeding the mathematical level of the beginning student; and 5) liberates physics students from the bonds of classical prejudices.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This book was in great condition, just like new!

⭐Had hoped for more theoretical writing, but this book is filled with mathematical equations, and short on theory. Disappointing after seeing Amit Goswami on PBS and getting excited to learn more about quantum physics. This text book is for advanced physics students only!

⭐Lots of mathematics, formulas, etc. Not recommended unless he has a thorough knowledge of Physics and math. I thought it would have contained more philosophy.

⭐This is THE [extra] book for quantum mechanics. I use this as a companion to my well used Griffiths text, and you cannot go wrong with the combination.

⭐I am reading it in conjunction with the other books by Goswami of recent years.

⭐A good book

⭐For some unknown reason, my undergraduate institution used Goswami’s quantum mechanics text instead of the plethora of other quality texts everyone else seems to use (e.g. Griffith’s Introduction to Quantum Mechanics). Quantum mechanics is a difficult subject to “get” anyway, even with a good text, but it was practically impossible to make sense of with Goswami’s book. Fortunately, the professor who taught the first semester of QM was good, so there was really no need to refer to the textbook. However, the professor who taught the second semester course was atrocious, and all of us students were left trying to learn the material by reading Goswami’s book (as well as any other texts we could get our hands on). Needless to say, I got very little out of second semester QM except a hard-earned B (the only B I got that semester).I’m entering grad school this fall and am spending the summer trying to master all that undergraduate QM. I didn’t realize just how bad Goswami’s book was until I picked up Griffith’s text for review, as well some others (e.g. Greiner, Liboff, and Sakurai). All that material I thought was inconceivably hard as an undergrad seems downright easy now…that is, after I started reading these other QM books.If you’re new to QM, do yourself a favor and avoid Goswami’s book at all cost. There are so many GOOD alternatives; pick one of those instead.

⭐The text lacks substance with examples and inadequately prepares for the end-of-text questions. The book either assume a higher background level or simply lacks adequate explanation in the text. If you are forced to use this text as an introductory couse – purchase Griffiths Quantum Mechanics (1st or 2nd addition) as a supplement text – you will need it!!!
