Does anyone know of a "quantum mechanics for mathematician" book?

I've seen "E&M for mathematicians" and "Relativity (special and general) for mathematician" books and like those, but I saw no QM ones.

Online or paper, doesn't matter. Does one exists?

Thanks

von Neumann's text would be the one to look at, so would Diracs' to start.

Did you try the links repository right here on PF?

There's an entry "Modern Physics for Mathematicians".

Quantum Mechanics and the Particles of Nature: An Outline for Mathematicians by Anthony Sudbery.

Quantum Field Theory for Mathematicians by Robin Ticciati.

Too tired to say more right now; I'll try and write a bit more about these books tomorrow.

von Neumann looks nice judging from the table of content.

Unfortunately Hurkyl, the link is dead. :(

Thanks GJ, I add those to my list of books to check out!

Hurkyl's link links to the Links section of PF. Go to the menu on top ->Links->Physics Resources->Quantum Mechanics.

Btw, the link is not dead. :)
