Rezensionen

"...a grandiose project creating a unified source of all important information related to modern Quantum Mechanics.has a very good balance between verbal explanations and math in the text and between the text itself, problems and illustrations." --Zentralblatt MATH

"...will be of greatest interest to physics students who already have some exposure to quantum mechanics. It would work well as the textbook for a more specialized survey of topics in modern quantum physics alongside established texts dedicated to the fundamentals." --Physics Today, July 2014
