About the author
JOHN S. TOWNSEND is Susan and Bruce Worster Professor of Physics at
the Harvey Mudd College, and the Claremont Colleges, USA
Endorsements 'Townsend has written an excellent book that someone needed to write for the modern physics textbook market. He has given it the same care that he gave to his excellent quantum mechanics book.' - Jeff Dunham, Middlebury College, USA 'When I read this book I immediately adopted it for my sophomore modern physics class. This is the best introduction to quantum mechanics available.' - B. Paul Padley, Rice University, USA 'I very much recommend Townsend's book to physics undergraduates, as well as lecturers. They will learn a great deal about quantum theory as well as how to teach it in an accessible and friendly way.' - Vlatko Vedral, University of Oxford, Contemporary Physics
