Résumé

Electrical and mechanical engineers, materials scientists and applied physicists will find Levi's uniquely practical explanation of quantum mechanics invaluable. This updated and expanded edition of the bestselling original text now covers quantization of angular momentum and quantum communication, and problems and additional references are included. Using real-world engineering examples to engage the reader, the author makes quantum mechanics accessible and relevant to the engineering student. Numerous illustrations, exercises, worked examples and problems are included; Matlab source codes to support the text are available from www.cambridge.org.

Engaging style with many examples and important real-world applications
Reviews classical mechanics and electromagnetism; develops both analytic and numerical methods
Detailed solutions to exercises and separate problems are given at the end of each chapter; instructor's solutions to problems and Matlab code are provided on the web
