Format: Paperback

This is the softcover printing of the second edition of Shankar's graduate quantum mechanics text, a standard on physics reading lists for decades.

The book opens with the mathematical groundwork it expects you to have, then develops the postulates of quantum mechanics and works outward through the harmonic oscillator, angular momentum, the hydrogen atom, spin, perturbation theory, scattering and path integrals. Derivations are worked at length rather than left as exercises, which is the reason many students keep it beside whatever text their course assigns.

Suited to graduate and advanced undergraduate coursework in quantum mechanics, qualifying exam preparation, and self-study by anyone approaching the subject seriously.
