242 solved problems of several degrees of difficulty in nonrelativistic Quantum Mechanics, ranging from the themes of the crisis of classical physics, through the achievements in the framework of modern atomic physics, down to the still alive, more intriguing aspects connected e.g. with the EPR paradox, the Aharonov--Bohm effect, quantum teleportation.
This book offers 242 solved problems of varying difficulty in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, from themes of the crisis of classical physics through modern atomic physics to intriguing aspects of the EPR paradox and more.

The student is taken step by step from the very birth of Quantum Mechanics to the fine structure levels of heavy atoms
Numerical outputs and orders of magnitude are given the same importance as the formal aspects of Quantum Mechanics
Not only problems, also subjects not usually covered by most textbooks in Quantum Mechanics
A unique self-teaching tool

From the reviews:
“The authors of this interesting book offer a lot of problems in the field of nonrelativistic Quantum Mechanics … . The basic methods and ideas of QM are illustrated here by a carefully chosen set of problems along with their solutions given in details. … The reader will find here problems of several levels of difficulty. Some of the problems are easy, standard and just recall basic notions. … this book can be of interest to anyone that uses quantum physics in the profession.” (Dimitar A. Kolev, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1230, 2012)
