Quantum Mechanics The Theoretical Minimum
Susskind and Friedman offer a humorous introduction to this notoriously challenging topic, which seeks to comprehend the behaviour of sub-atomic things using mathematical abstractions, in this follow-up to the New York Times best-selling The Theoretical Minimum. The total strangeness of quantum logic is embraced by quantum mechanics, in contrast to other popularizations that downplay it. The fundamentals of quantum states, uncertainty and time dependence, entanglement, particle and wave states, and other issues are all clearly explained by the writers. Each chapter also includes activities to verify that the reader fully understands each concept. This book is a companion to Susskind's Stanford University-sponsored continuing education course of the same name, just like The Theoretical Minimum.
