If it were presented as a supplement to a quantum physics textbook, I'd give it four stars. As a "for Dummies" book, I'm afraid it's a failure. I came into this book just having finished [b:String Theory For Dummies|10399015|String Theory For Dummies|Andrew Zimmerman Jones|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51MeQK9gINL._SL75_.jpg|15302931] by [a:Andrew Zimmerman Jones|2943202|Andrew Zimmerman Jones|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1252952533p2/2943202.jpg], which I highly recommend. String Theory for Dummies is a wonderful introduction to the very strange universe of string theory. In contrast, Quantum Physics for Dummies is an almost indecipherable, math-laden, incomprehensible "introduction" to quantum physics. The introduction states that you need a good background in college calculus including differential equations and at least a year of college physics to understand this book. The introduction does not lie. I have all these qualifications (and I'd add matrices mathematics to the requirements) and I still could not follow a lot of the math. My main problem with the book was that the author did a poor job of connecting all this math to the real world. There was very, very little qualitative discussion of quantum physics, and 90 % of the book was spent solving equations, but failing to tie the resulting equation to any physical object or phenomenon. All that said, it's not a bad book, it's just not appropriate for the "For Dummies" series. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
