description: Takhtadzhian, also spelled Takhtajan, (mathematics, Stony Brook U.) offers a textbook based on a course he has long taught to second year graduates of mathematics who were assumed to have no prior knowledge of physics. He introduces the basic concepts and methods of quantum mechanics, emphasizing those aspects that have influenced the recent course of mathematics in the same manner that classical physics did from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The material can be used for a one-year course or two one-semester courses. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
