Quantum Mechanics by Thomas DeGrand

The subject of most of this book is the quantum mechanics of systems which have a small number of degrees of freedom. This book is a mix of descriptions of quantum mechanics itself, the general properties of systems described by quantum mechanics, and general techniques for describing their behavior. Topics covered includes: Quantum mechanics in the language of Hilbert space, Time dependence in quantum mechanics, Propagators and path integrals, Density matrices, Wave mechanics, Angular momentum, Identical particles, Time independent perturbation theory, Variational methods and Time dependent perturbation theory.
