A Modern Approach to Quantum Mechanics (INTERNATIONAL SERIES IN PURE AND APPLIED PHYSICS) - Hardcover
This is the first textbook to introduce a modern approach to teaching quantum mechanics. The modern approach involves introducing the subject through examples such as detailed discussion of the physics of intrinsic spin. Unlike other books on the subject, it does not introduce the subject through wave mechanics.

About the Author:
John S. Townsend is a Professor of Physics at Harvey Mudd College.
Review:
This is an excellent book for a course on advanced undergraduate quantum mechanics...refreshing in its approach. --Randy Hulet, Rice University
The best aspect of this book is its consistently sound pedagogy. The point is that Townsend is not showing off, not being fussy or pedantic. He has recognized a potential confusion and neatly headed it off. The book is full of such smart, sensitive teaching. --Richard Hazeltine, University of Texas, Austin
Townsend is the best book I know for advanced undergraduate quantum mechanics. --Ralph D. Amado, University of Pennsylvania
