Book for learning quantum and electronics

[badri89]

hi all..can anyone give me some basic math book that would enable me to understand quantum physics and electronics(semiconductors,electromagnetic theory). Perhaps a good book that starts from vector basics would do fine i think. please guide me. thanks in advance.

I have McQuarrie's Quantum Chemistry, which suited my needs.

There is some overkill in there, at least for me. If you haven't got the mathematical agility usually recommended to study quantum physics, this book is for you. It's not "difficult", and it goes through every math concept very clearly. If you already are fluent in the concerned areas of mathematics, then just skip the math chapters.

I found it helpful, as a chemistry student. Its purpose is to explain, and it does it well. As a plus, the book will teach you a bit of the historical development of quantum physics. There are mini-biographies about scientists who worked on quantum theory at the beginning of each chapter.

Anyway,take a look at it, and see if it goes for you.
