This book is generally intended for a senior
or first-year graduate-level course in quantum mechanics.
It has been thoroughly tested in the classroom
at three major universities over a period of seven years.
Its strong orientation toward application of quantal techniques,
an emphasis on problem solving, and a detailed explanation of points
throughout the book will appeal to the student audience.
The book is divided into three sections.
The first two chapters, which comprise the initial section,
provide a review of quantum concepts from intermediate quantum physics courses.
The second section consists of eight chapters
and constitutes a course in non-relativistic quantum mechanics.
Section three provides insight into more advanced quantum theory and the elements of field theory.
