On the other side though, about how in depth would you say it gets?
Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics that studies the behavior of particles at the atomic and subatomic level. It is important because it helps us understand and explain phenomena that classical mechanics cannot, such as the behavior of particles in a vacuum or the behavior of electrons in an atom.
A beginner-friendly quantum mechanics book should have clear and concise explanations, avoid using complex mathematical equations, and provide real-world examples to help readers understand the concepts. It should also have a logical and organized structure to guide readers through the material.
Yes, some popular beginner-friendly quantum mechanics books include "Quantum Mechanics: The Theoretical Minimum" by Leonard Susskind and Art Friedman, "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by David J. Griffiths, and "Quantum Physics for Beginners" by Zbigniew Ficek.
While a basic understanding of calculus and linear algebra is helpful, many beginner-friendly quantum mechanics books do not require advanced mathematical knowledge. These books often provide explanations and examples in a way that is accessible to readers with limited mathematical background.
Yes, anyone can learn quantum mechanics with the right resources and dedication. While a background in physics can certainly be helpful, there are many beginner-friendly books and online resources available that provide clear explanations and examples to help non-experts understand the concepts of quantum mechanics.
