The discussion revolves around recommendations for books on Quantum Physics, aimed at individuals seeking to deepen their understanding of the subject without delving into overly complex material. The focus is on finding suitable introductory texts that balance accessibility and depth.
Participants generally agree on the suitability of Griffiths and Shankar's books for someone at a high school level, but there is no consensus on which book is definitively better to start with.
The discussion reflects varying levels of mathematical preparedness among participants, which influences their recommendations. There is an implicit assumption that the suggested books are appropriate for readers with a high school background in mathematics.
Individuals interested in learning about Quantum Physics, particularly high school students or those with a basic understanding of mathematics looking for accessible yet informative texts.

Lexie_AT said:Hi and thanks !
Well I'm finishing high school... I think that the Introduction goes well with my case. I studied maths in advanced course but not like I'm hoping to study them next year... So to begin the two books seem great !
Lexie_AT said:Okay, I'll try to find them in the library or buy thel on the internet
