Balances mathematical discussions with physical discussions. * Derivations are complete and the theory is applied whenever possible. * Gasiorowicz is a world class researcher in quantum physics.

Quantum Physics

Stephen T. Thornton

Paul M. Fishbane

This text is designed for a calculus-based physics course at the beginning university and college level, written with the expectation that students have basic calculus. Students taking a physics course based on this book should leave with a solid conceptual understanding of the fundamental physical laws.
