"Introductory Quantum Mechanis" is massive and informative works, which contains mostly mathematical terms and formulas rather than physical qualties or description of the quantum processes and bodies. Richard L. Liboff did extensive work to explain quantum mechanics for university students. At the end of the day, I understand only 35% of the content of the book.

A good book. Will write the rest of the review when I get free

Went through most of this book in my college days. I don't know why I had it listed here. I'm going over a completely different quantum book right now.

Made you really wanna Read all about Quantum Mechanics and what it really means for our future.

This was my undergraduate Quantum mechanics text. I recall it to be clear, comprehensive, accessible and challenging. I have long forgotten the small quibbles that I also had with it on a few points and now remember it fondly. I used J.J. Sakurai's Modern Quantum Mechanics to provide additional perspective.

If I were starting again I'd also consider David J. Griffiths' text too, but for me, Liboff is still a solid way to go.

Surprisingly little. The book gives a general overview of broad topics with almost no context or background information. Only those who excel in higher mathematics will gain anything useful from this book.

This was a superb undergraduate intro into QM. I learned an amazing amount from this book. The problems are very well laid out and help to teach the material and provide valuable insights into the subject.
