    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    Thanks...but I am intersted in how to DO QM.thanks for the book it seems very intersting after reading the index

    Linear Algebra for Quantum Mechanics (QM) Preparation

    So try Dirac's book...I think in QM you will ned most Kets and Bras Algabra

    Linear Algebra for Quantum Mechanics (QM) Preparation

    Try the first chapter of "Principles of Quantum Mechanics - R. Shankar" called Mathematical introduction,and you will know exactly what you are going to learn

    Advice for second rigorous book on linear algebra

    That is called "Decision Strategy"...when you have a menu on a resturant,you do not want to eat all what is in it,you just pick something that you are satisfied with,I know some people that read all the menu then ask you "What you are going to have??!"

    Advice for second rigorous book on linear algebra

    And why do you think they put an index in the first pages? by the way they are just 33...

    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    I do not want to have ?in physics,I just want to understand it,it is as simple as that,and a bout the wrong path of String Theory,maybe you are right,but do we have a better choice?I personally don't like the people who critique alot...as one philosopher(I don't not remember who he is): "To find...

    Advice for second rigorous book on linear algebra

    Try this: Introductory textbooks Axler, Sheldon (February 26, 2004), Linear Algebra Done Right (2nd ed.), Springer, ISBN 978-0387982588 Bretscher, Otto (June 28, 2004), Linear Algebra with Applications (3rd ed.), Prentice Hall, ISBN 978-0131453340 Farin, Gerald; Hansford, Dianne...

    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    Yes my friend,you are abslutly right,for me I study mechanics(vehicules)...and we've learned linear algebra(I personally hated the subject)...and I discovered that it is one of the mathematical foundation of Quantum Theory...and I've spent 5 years in the university and I still in the second...

    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    Yes this is what I want...after looking I think quantum mechanics will take me 3-5 years to get it ,then I will go to general relativity say an other 5 years then QED and QCD then String Theory...(I hope to live until this time)...as Hawking once put it "There is two kind of people get paied for...

    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    Thanks my friend,I want to get familair with the tools...for the concerpts,you can try the Teaching Company courses like (Einstein,physist,philosopher,..)or better one (Relativity and Quantum Revolution)...but we need to know the mathematical tools,so we can understand how the theory really works

    A good quantum mechanics book for the self-learner?

    Listen my friend,I am not an expert on the field...imagine that you are in a city that you do not know and you ask a stranger for direction...there is two opetions,the stranger know the city or not 50-50,and then,if the stranger is telling the truth or not...and at last you get 25% chance to...

    Can Time Travel Really Avoid Violating Causality?

    What do we mean when we say travel to the past or to the future? does the past still EXIST somewhere else?and is the future just a station waiting for us-it is already there-to reach it? I do not think so,time is just a concept of the mind,or as Kant says"Synthetic a priori" The only thing...
