Principles of Advanced Mathematical Physics

This pioneering text provides a comprehensive introduction to systems structure, function, and modeling as applied in all fields of science and engineering.

R. Shankar has introduced major additions and updated key presentations in this second edition of Principles of Quantum Mechanics. New features of this innovative text include an entirely rewritten mathematical introduction, a discussion of Time-reversal invariance, and extensive coverage of a variety of path integrals and their applications.

by Paolo Maria Mariano (Author), Luciano Galano (Author)
Based on the authors’ many years of experience teaching courses on the mechanics of solids and what they found to work best for students
Takes a deductive rather than inductive approach and starts from a few first, foundational principles
Exercises organized in a way that will allow students to form a link between abstract mathematical concepts and real-world applications
