Relativistic Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Fields (2nd Edition) by W-Y Pauchy Hwang (National Taiwan University, Taiwan) & Ta-You Wu
“The publication of Professor Wu’s Quantum Mechanics and the present sequel will make it possible for serious science students everywhere to share the insight and the wisdom that were instrumental in launching our careers.” Foreword in the 1st edition by T. D. Lee Nobel Laureate in Physics, 1957 This book follows the generally pedagogic style of quantum mechanics. The scope ranges from relativistic quantum mechanics to an introduction to quantum field theory with quantum electrodynamics as the basic example and ends with an exposition of important issues related to the standard model.

Introductory Quantum Physics and Relativity (2nd Edition) by Jacob Dunningham (University of Sussex, UK), Vlatko Vedral (Oxford)
“The authors have done an exceptional job. It’s probably more accurate to describe this text as an introduction to both non-relativistic and relativistic quantum mechanics ... This book was a lot of fun to read and digest. I definitely recommend it for instructors, but also for students who have already been exposed to quantum mechanics.” Contemporary Physics This undergraduate textbook combines quantum physics and relativity at an introductory level. Based on undergraduate courses given at the University of Leeds, this new edition covers all the material required for quantum physics and relativity in the first three years of a traditional physics degree, in addition to more interesting and up-to-date extensions and applications which include quantum field theory, entanglement, and quantum information science.

Problems and Solutions in Quantum Computing and Quantum Information (4th Edition)
by Willi-Hans Steeb (University of Johannesburg, South Africa), Yorick Hardy (University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa) Review of the 2nd Edition: “This is a nice collection of standard problems and solutions, the latter being formulated on a level as elementary as possible. So it is especially useful for students who want to become acquainted with quantum information and computation. It is also useful for lecturers when they have to prepare exercises.” Zentralblatt MATH This book presents a large collection of problems in quantum computing and quantum information together with their detailed solutions, which will prove to be invaluable to students as well as researchers in these fields. 556pp Apr 2018 978-981-3238-40-4 US$118 £104 978-981-3239-28-9(pbk) US$58 £51
