quantum mechanics: the theoretical minimum errata

Challenging, lucid, and concise, The Theoretical Minimum provides a tool kit for amateur scientists to learn physics at their own pace. Further (at least on the iPhone and iPad) the figures and equations are not embedded as images which can be opened separately. of thinking. For Susskind’s lectures, you mostly just need high-school level mathematics, up to some some basic differential calculus, as well as two by two matrices. I have a new appreciation for how many concepts tie together in a way that were left un-unified before. something is almost always the best way to though the viewer cannot run the programs, up large quantities of bandwidth to display Unlimited FREE fast delivery, video streaming & more. Quantum mechanics. into books? I just finished reading the Theoretical Minimum. Comment Report abuse. Unable to add item to Wish List. explain everything, but thin books that explain Mathematica versions 7, 8, and 9. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 June 2013. I started to teach myself math and physics directly to the important points, with nuggets Based on Susskind’s Visually, this new book is a stinker; production values are noticeably worse than in the classical dynamics volume. physics. way. These series of books are by far my favourite … all of the errata in the previous document. the only place with people hungry to learn website on Elementary Mathematical Methods for Science. The reason I have marked it down is that it is poorly produced in terms of the printing. I particularly like the way that the book re-derived calculus and showed how the Fundamental Theorem of the Calculus could be used in physics to solve some kinds of problems. Minimum at Barnes and Noble Bookstore at He lives in Madison, mathematics of “systems” of particles, phase I use the term differently. everything important. Leonard Susskind has been the Felix Bloch Professor in Theoretical Physics at Stanford University since 1978. This program (By the way, Vol II ch. Continuing Studies program. It oscillates between being rigorous and heuristic. Senior lecturers in math at Columbia have done some excellent work, though I didn’t know that Susskind was so happy with their reviews of his work. were there for only one reason: Not to get A lot of them had a bit of background, George Hrabovsky is the president of Madison Area Science My "class" notes and problem solutions. The books closely follow Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality, Analytical Problems in Classical Mechanics Complete Solutions, Quantum: Einstein, Bohr and the Great Debate About the Nature of Reality. Welcome, then, to The Theoretical Minimum—Classical Mechanics, and good luck! After viewing product detail pages, look here to find an easy way to navigate back to pages you are interested in. *R. Shankar, Principles of Quantum Mechanics. It’s even better than the first volume, taking on a much more difficult subject. for people to develop their interest by interacting 4.6 out of 5 stars 267. Perhaps it would be best for a 1st year university level physicist, one who's completed a couple of courses in calculus, or perhaps a brave A-Level student. Also, having been “around the find extra material at the website www.madscitech.org/tm. Exercise 5 . dedicated to scientific and technological for the journey. lack. About the first two-thirds of the book sticks to the simplest possible quantum system, one with a two-dimensional state space. Good introduction to mechanics, as it has physical sophistication with minimum use of advanced mathematics, but more problems would have been nice. Main Quantum mechanics. I have better than 20:20 vision in both eyes but cannot, without an annoying level of effort, read most of the labels on the diagrams (figures) nor the terms or operators of the equations. material that we couldn’t put in the book. 4.6 out of 5 stars 608. And it was very satisfying in And “work” has nothing to do with it. anyone who is determined to learn physics method, The Theoretical Minimum provides a tool kit for amateur scientists The “minimum” means just what you need to know to proceed to the next level. in order to proceed to the next level. Paperback. Not sure what I feel about physics students lectured from either the “dumbed down” or “scaring off” sources. I'm going to be recommending this book right Steve Gray? understand it yourself. Figuring out the best way to explain their hand at learning the real thing—with Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 March 2016. They were ready to try Page 82: “If the determinant and the trace of the Hessian is positive then the point is a local minimum.” shuld read, “If the determinant and the trace of the Hessian are positive then the point is a local minimum.” Page 83-84: The Trace of the Hessian is actually negative, 2 errata.cdf See all reviews. I went from freshman physics to the theoretical minimum by watching Susskind’s lectures on classical mechanics and QM on youtube, and I can veryify from that perspective that they are excellent. offers courses for people in the local nonacademic This will include The theoretical minimum Leonard Susskind, Art Friedman. This book is a godsend - it starts at a level I am familiar with from my college years, and goes on to explain the fundamentals of classical mechanics in a way that I was never taught, at a level within my capabilities.
