Ballentine - Quantum Mechanics: A Modern Development

Demystifier

Yesterday, I have finished with reading of the book
L. E. Ballentine, Quantum Mechanics: A Modern Development
I have seen many textbooks on non-relativistic QM, but for me this one is simply the best.
I highly recommend it to everybody.

I would also like to see the opinion of the others who have seen the book.

Doc Al

I agree. It's an excellent book. Ballentine dispenses with much of the nonsense that slips into some books.

George Jones

I have it, and I, too, think that it excellent. I like it much better than, for example, Sakurai.

Having seen in this thread the previous recommendations for Ballentine from several people
I respect very much on Physics Forums, I decided to order a copy. (I already have quite a
few other QM/QFT books.)

My copy arrived this morning, and I immediately dipped into several sections to see how
he deals with certain topics. I am so pleased in every instance that I'll now make
time to (eventually) read the entire book. :-)
