SUMMARY
This discussion centers on locating free ebooks on quantum mechanics, specifically J.J. Sakurai's work. Participants clarify that Sakurai's book is copyrighted and not available for free legally. They suggest using resources like arXiv.org and Google for searching other physics texts, while also providing links to MIT's Quantum Physics lecture notes and other educational resources. The conversation emphasizes the importance of respecting copyright laws when seeking academic materials.
PREREQUISITES
