What are the best books to start self-studying quantum theory?
>>7801188
Shankar
>>7801188
griffiths, shankar, schaums
>>7801198
Eh I know Griffiths is shit but op should probably start with his book over shankar.

Why so so many people hate Griffiths? I used his books for qm and em in undergrad and thought they were OK.
>>7801204
People here shit on it because it's lower-level than most QM texts.
Griffiths is a fine book, and Griffiths -> Shankar is a fine progression if you are too inexperienced to handle working through Shankar

his QM book was easy af and ignored a lot of the deeper math compared to one i took in my engineering program at grad school, which is saying something

>i
opinion discarded
>>7801200
Definitely NOT this book lol

why not cuck
