Physics Bulletin

Fundamental Principles and Quantum Theory and its Applications

J L Beeby

Published Nov 1, 1975• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

B Cagnac and J C Pebay-Peyroula London: Macmillan 1975 pp xxiv + 328 price £5·95 pp xix + 253 price £5·95 These books formed the two volumes of a French text but are issued independently in their English versions. Fundamental Principles is concerned with the experimental justification of the laws of quantum mechanics and is intended to be read without prerequisite knowledge of the formalism of quantum mechanics.

Introduction to the Quantum Theory

David L Hurd

David Park McGraw-Hill Publishing Co. Ltd. 1964. Pp. xv + 547. Price 83s. 6d. There are surely few branches of physics which have been so amply, and repetitively, documented as the basic principles of quantum mechanics. Suppressing an almost overwhelming impression of déjà vu, one opens this new entry to the field to find that the text is so organized as to present the discussion of the theory in Part I, and to segregate the applications to Part II, an arrangement for which there is much to be said and which, when as thoughtfully carried out as in the example under review, allows the student, and the lecturer, the opportunity to mix his own blend of theory and application.

Quantum Mechanics

F. W. Sheard

Alastair I M Rae 1981 Maidenhead: McGraw-Hill xii + 237 pp price £6.95 This book is an introductory text and follows a familiar pattern. In chapter 4 the basic postulates and machinery of quantum mechanics are elucidated.

Group Theory and Quantum Mechanics

Alan Cottey

B L van der Waerden Berlin: Springer 1974 pp vii + 211 price DM 56 This is a belated translation plus revision of the 1932 German edition. The substantial revision of the introductory chapter on fundamental notions of quantum mechanics should succeed in its stated aim of making the book more accessible to mathematicians.

Modern Physics and Quantum Mechanics

D H Tomlin

E Anderson London: W B Sounders 1971 pp xi + 430 price £6·20 The book is intended for use at senior undergraduate level in an American university, though the first few chapters deal with material likely to have been included in a more elementary course on modern physics. The author's declared aim is to bridge a gap between the more elementary, descriptive type of course and advanced applications of quantum mechanics at postgraduate level.

Introduction to Quantum Mechanics

George Wyllie

By P. T. Matthews London: McGraw-Hill Publishing Co. Ltd. 1963. Pp. xii + 170. Price 25s. This represents good value. The text is concise without being too much compressed, and the student who works the problems will develop a very useful facility in elementary quantum theory.

Mechanics: Classical and Quantum

Péter Faragó

Thomas T Taylor Oxford: Pergamon 1976 pp xi + 399 price £10 (cased), £6.50 {paperback) As stated in the preface ‘… this book is intended to give students a solid grounding in the principles of quantum mechanics after leading them to these principles via the medium of analytical mechanics’. The success of this eminently sound approach hinges on the selection of the material and its presentation.
