Book on Classical and Quantum Mechanics

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for a book that presents both classical and quantum mechanics using a unified mathematical framework. Participants express interest in resources that bridge these two areas of physics, emphasizing the desire for a comprehensive understanding rather than separate treatments. A notable recommendation is Robert Geroch's lecture notes titled "Geometric Quantum Mechanics," which may address the integration of classical and quantum concepts. Additionally, the conversation touches on the possibility of finding literature that explores both classical and quantum geometry within the same mathematical context.

Is there a book that presents classical and quantum mechanics utilizing the same mathematical framework? Just to get it out of the way, I have books on both topics that are separate from each other, I'm merely interested in any formulations of both theories utilizing the same math frameworks. If possible, is there also a book that describes classical and quantum geometry?

TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...
TLDR: is Blennow "Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering" a good follow-up to Altland "Mathematics for physicists"? Hello everybody, returning to physics after 30-something years, I felt the need to brush up my maths first. It took me 6 months and I'm currently more than half way through the Altland "Mathematics for physicists" book, covering the math for undergraduate studies at the right level of sophystication, most of which I howewer already knew (being an aerospace engineer)...
