Quantum mechanics: the theoretical minimum, first impressions


So far I have read past the first chapter of this book by Leonard Susskind, it is written for theoretical physics undergraduates in mind. Unlike other books I have read on this subject, it contains the mathematical explanations with mathematical formulas and also at the end of the chapter there are exercises for those who want a challenge.

After doing some background research on the author, it appears the book is based on his lectures. I will post more on this later.

Quantum mechanics: the theoretical minimum

I started my next Amazon kindle book and its back to quantum mechanics with "Quantum mechanics: the theoretical minimum". I am on the first chapter and he is already talking about "qubits", should be very interesting.
