Description: Several features make this book unusual. The first is the historical content Second the practical importance of quantum physics is demonstrated by the inclusion of numerous summary discussions of technological applications A third unusual feature of this book is a detailed solution immediately following each in - text exercise. Each such problem is used to advance the discussion and the question - and - answer format encourages the student to wrestle with the ideas personally rather than simply reading passively This short book would easily make a helpful secondary text allowing an instructor to touch on some non - traditional topics such as least action principles and path integrals. Contemporary Physics Bridging the gap between traditional books on quantum and statistical physics this series is an ideal introductory course for students who are looking for an alternative approach to the traditional academic treatment. This pedagogical approach relies heavily on scientific or technological applications from a wide range of fields. For every new concept introduced an application is given to connect the theoretical results to a real - life situation. Each volume features in - text exercises and detailed solutions with easy - to - understand applications. This first volume sets the scene of a new physics. It explains where quantum mechanics come from its connection to classical physics and why it was needed at the beginning of the twentieth century. It examines how very simple models can explain a variety of applications such as quantum wells thermoluminescence dating scanning tunnel microscopes quantum cryptography masers and how fluorescence can unveil the past of art pieces.
