Faddeeva and Yakubovskii used these lectures to teach the principles of quantum mechanics to mathematics students. Now translated into English for classroom use, this text presupposes a solid math background but not extensive knowledge of mechanics or physics. Lectures include Heisenberg equations, eigenfunctions, scattering, one-dimensional particles and perturbation theory among others. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
