Quantum Theory by David Bohm ISBN: 0486659690 Dover Publications Price: $19.95 click here to see this book This advanced undergraduate-level text provides a formulation of the quantum theory in terms of qualitative and imaginative concepts outside classical theory. A broad range of specific applications follows, worked out in considerable mathematical detail. Also included: an examination of the relationship between quantum and classical concepts. Preface.
