 Marvellous March 6, 2008
If one wants to understand Quantum Mechanics then she or he should read this book.
Great supplement ... December 4, 2007
Great supplement to Griffith's book as well as Woodgate's book. Some of the other positive comments here say it all.
great book October 23, 2007
this is very great theoretical quantum book. Although you cannot start learning quantum mechanics from this book, But for extended theoretical studies, in the concept of quantum mechanics in general, and also in specific fields. I recommend this book. This book is number 5 of my quantum books, it is so far the most consistent, but I understand also this is because quantum is not a strange subject to me any more. I really recommended for graduate students, or undergraduates who have good understanding of the mathematical calculation for basic quantum.
great book after all.
 Contents - Great, Print Quality - Really Bad July 30, 2007

It is really a shame to have such a classic text with a typesetting that makes much of the mathematics almost unreadable. For example, the authors often use either a tilde, hat (carat), and dot (period) on top of operators, sometimes in combination. These are so badly rendered that you have to derive their identities from the context of the surrounding discussion. Frequently parts of characters are missing as if an old typewriter with a worn ribbon were used. I have 2 other volumes in this series (Mechanics and Statistical Physics Part 1) which do not suffer these defects. My 2-star rating is in no way a reflection of the contents nor the authors, which get 5 stars (based on the prose and the equations I CAN read).
amazing book March 17, 2007

There are no words to express the amazing clarity of this book. I came across it at the library. I only have a passing interest in science but, despite the high level at which this book was written, this book helped me understand that there are things in this world called electrons that don't have a velocity or a path in the classical sense. When I die, I'll be one of the few that truly understood this amazing physics of our world thanks to this book. I cannot understand the whole book, but that is not the fault of the book. It is written for very specialized individuals thinking on a very high level. Some examples are included, but I suspect they are unnecessary as the exposition is superb. It is truly a work of art.
