This book provides a first course on quantum mechanics and describes simple applications to physical phenomena that are of immediate and everyday interest.

The first five chapters introduce the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and are followed by a revision quiz with which readers may test their understanding. The remaining chapters describe applications, including the theory of spin and its application to magnetic resonance imaging, physics of lasers, molecular binding, simple properties of crystalline solids arising from their brand structure, and the operation of junction transistors.

Ideal either as a course text or a self-study text, the book contains nearly 100 exercises and hints for their solution. It will be valuable for second- or third-year undergraduate students in physics, electronic engineering, mathematics and chemistry.
