Quantum Mechanics: The Theoretical Minimum
Leonard Susskind
Art Friedman
In The Theoretical Minimum, World-class Physicist Leonard Susskind Provided A Brilliant First Course In Classical Mechanics, Offering Readers Not An Oversimplified Introduction But The Real Thing - Everything You Need To Start Doing Physics, And Nothing More. Now He Returns With The Next Challenge That Every Aspiring Physics Buff Must Tackle: Quantum Mechanics. Unlike Classical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics Is Not Intuitive - It Concerns Things So Small They Are Beyond The Range Of Human Senses. To Understand Quantum Physics, You Need To Learn A Whole New Way Of Thinking, But Then, Susskind Reveals, You Will Discover That It Is Even More Fundamental Than Classical Mechanics. Unlike Most Popular Physics Books - Which Give Readers A Taste Of What Physicists Know But Not What They Actually Do - Susskind And His Co-author Art Friedman Teach The Maths And Equations That Are Essential To Any Real Understanding Of Quantum Mechanics. Combining Crystal-clear Explanations, Witty And Helpful Dialogues, And Basic Exercises, Quantum Mechanics Is, To Paraphrase Einstein, As Simple As Possible, But No Simpler.
