The text stresses the continuity between the quantum world and the classical world, which is merely an approximation to the quantum worldoxfam bookshop knutsford the physics of quantum mechanics aims to give students a good understanding of how quantum mechanics describes the material worlda chapter is devoted to entanglement, quantum computation, density operators and their role in thermodynamics, and the measurement problemevery opportunity is taken to illustrate the emergence of the familiar classical, dynamical world through the quantum interference of stationary stateshydrogen and helium are discussed in some detail and it is shown that quantum mechanics enables us to understand the structure of the periodic table without engaging with the complexities of many-electron atomsit stresses that stationary states are unphysical mathematical abstractions that enable us to solve the theory's governing equation, the time-dependent schroedinger equationdirac notation is used from the outset and students are trained to move easily from one representation to another, choosing whichever representation is best suited to a particular problemrigorous algebraic methods are preferred to the solution of partial differential equationsthe mathematical prerequisites are no more than simple vector algebra, taylor series expansion and the use of integrating factors to solve linear first order differential equationsscattering phenomena, including the origin of radioactivity, are handled early on in the accessible context of one dimension, and at the end of the book with some rigour in three dimensionsname written on inside facing page see oxfam website for delivery information read moreit shows that the theory follows naturally from the use of probability amplitudes to derive probabilitiesthe connections between observables, operators and transformations are clearly explained and the standard commutation rules derived from the properties of spacetime

This is the first full-length account of the crisis in our understanding that has enveloped quantum cosmologyin the end of time, the british theoretical physicist julian barbour describes the coming revolution in our understanding of the world: a quantum theory of the universe that brings together einstein's general theory of relativity, which denies the existence of a unique time, and quantum mechanics, which demands onethe heart of the book is the author's lucid description of how a world of stillness can appear to be teeming with motion: in this timeless world where all possible instants coexist, complex mathematical rules of quantum mechanics bind together a special selection of these instants in a coherent order that consciousness perceives as the flow of timefinally, in a lucid and eloquent epilogue, the author speculates on the philosophical implications of his theory: does free will exist? is time travel possible? how did the universe begin? where is heaven? does the denial of time make life meaningless? written with exceptional clarity and elegance, this profound and original work presents a dazzlingly powerful argument that all will be able to follow, but no-one with an interest in the workings of the universe will be able to ignorebarbour believes that only the most radical of ideas can resolve the conflict between these two theories: that there is, quite literally, no time at allsee oxfam website for delivery information read morealthough the laws of physics create a powerful impression that time is flowing, in fact there are only timeless 'nows'unifying thinking that has never been brought together before in a book for the general reader, barbour reveals the true architecture of the universe and demonstrates how physics is coming up sharp against the extraordinary possibility that the sense of time passing emerges from a universe that is timelessoxfam bookshop cheltenham time is an illusion

quantum theory is weirdbut in "quantum", kumar brings einstein back to the centre of the quantum debateas niels bohr said, if you weren't shocked by quantum theory, you didn't really understand ityet for 60 years most physicists believed that quantum theory denied the very existence of reality itselfquantum theory looks at the very building blocks of our world, the particles and processes without which it could not existtake it nice and easy and savour the experience of your mind being blown without recourse to hallucinogens' nicholas lezard, guardian for most people, quantum theory is a byword for mysterious, impenetrable sciencein , albert einstein suggested that light was a particle, not a wave, defying a century of experiments"quantum" is the essential read for anyone fascinated by this complex and thrilling story and by the band of brilliant men at its heartwerner heisenberg's uncertainty principle and erwin schrodinger's famous dead-and-alive cat are similarly strangeand yet for many years it was equally baffling for scientists themselvessee oxfam website for delivery information read morein this tour de force of science history, manjit kumar shows how the golden age of physics ignited the greatest intellectual debate of the twentieth centurywhile "quantum" sets the science in the context of the great upheavals of the modern age, kumar's centrepiece is the conflict between einstein and bohr over the nature of reality and the soul of scienceoxfam shop worcester 'this is about gob-smacking science at the far end of reason'bohr brainwashed a whole generation of physicists into believing that the problem had been solved', lamented the nobel prize-winning physicist murray gell-mannin this magisterial book, manjit kumar gives a dramatic and superbly-written history of this fundamental scientific revolution, and the divisive debate at its core
