內容提要
We are pleased once again that the need has arisen to produce a new edition of Quantum Mechanics: Introduction. We have taken this opportunity to make several amendments and improvements to the text. A number of misprints and minor errors have been corrected and explanatory remarks have been given at various places. Also, several new examples and exercises have been added. .
We thank several colleagues and students for helpful comments, particularly Dr. Stefan Hofmann who supervised the preparation of this fourth edition of the book. Finallly, we acknowledge the agreeable collaboration with Dr. H. J. Kolsch and his team at Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg. ...
