A great review of Quantum Physics

This book helped to refresh my memory of Quantum Physics. It lays down the basic formulas and what they mean in order to give a general idea of what is essential to Quantum Physics. Although this is not a stand alone guide for someone just learning the material, it will help you pick out that which is most important in your studies.

This is the best book of the elemental quantum physics .

It is very concise, easy reading and clear. It is valuable for any student just touching the quantum physics
