Quantum Physics: A Text for Graduate Students

By Roger G. Newton

Book Overview

Compared to other books, there is a diminished emphasis on particles as the fundamental physical entities and a stronger stress on fields, which in turn give rise to particles. And in contrast to most other texts, the early history of quantum mechanics is ignored; the treatment starts out directly, with the basic assumptions of the theory.
