Quantum Open Quantum Systems textbooks with exercises?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights the need for a textbook on open quantum systems that includes exercises for self-assessment. While "The Theory of Open Quantum Systems" by Breuer and Petruccione is recognized as a standard reference, it is noted for lacking exercises. A recommended alternative is "Open Quantum Systems," edited by Breuer, Petruccione, and Vacchini, which offers a thorough introduction to the subject along with exercises at the end of each chapter, making it suitable for those looking to reinforce their understanding.

The standard reference for open quantum systems is The Theory of Open Quantum Systems by Breuer and Petruccione, which seems well-written but it lacks exercises, as do all the other textbooks I googled. Does someone have a recommendation for a textbook on open quantum systems with problems to check my understanding?

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
