Published Jan 1, 1970• 34 citations

Abstract

H A Bethe and B Jackiw New York: Benjamin 1968 pp ix + 393, price $11.00 This book is designed to meet the needs of students working through a second course of quantum mechanics. It is not a textbook on the fundamental theory, but is rather a down to earth treatment of the main applications to atomic physics.

Foundations of Quantum Theory

S Wieder New York: Academic Press 1973 pp xv + 399 price $13.95 This book is not really concerned with the foundations of quantum theory, in any mathematical or philosophical sense; rather, it is a textbook at the intermediate level aimed at physics students in their final undergraduate year. One might ask why it was written.

Introduction to quantum theory

H. F. Hameka New York: Harper & Row. 1967 Pp. x + 276. Price £2 15s. It is questionable whether it is good educational policy to provide ancillary rather than additional courses for undergraduates. However, the teacher who feels that chemistry students should be exposed to a special version of introductory quantum mechanics may well find that Professor Hameka's book suggests a suitable course.

Quantum Mechanics of Many Body Systems

Sam F Edwards

D J Thouless New York: Academic 1972 pp xi + 242 price $13.50 This is the second edition of a text which has gained wide acceptance by workers in its field. It is an introduction to the subject rather than a comprehensive treatise and indeed the latter would be a near impossibility since many body theory now encompasses the greater part of theoretical physics outside the high energy region.

This addition to the large number of available books on quantum mechanics is mainly of interest to the nonspecialist. The subject is introduced via elementary radiation theory, the Bohr atom and de Broglie waves, which lead to plausibility arguments for Schrodinger's equation.

Hendrik F Hameka 1981 New York: John Wiley xii + 387 pp price £24 This is a revised and updated version of the author's 1967 text Introduction to Quantum Mechanics. It was then thought particularly suitable for chemists, and indeed the new version has a flavour not unlike that of the classic Quantum Chemistry by Eyring, Walter and Kimball.
