    A Classic Work Revisited

    If a book could be rated with more than 5 Stars, this would be it. Clear, concise and the math makes sense. The chapters follow a logical order and build from basic concepts like Superposition Theory to Relativity and QED. Dirac first published this work in 1930 but has updated much of it in later editions throughout his long and productive life. You will read it again and again, I know I have.

    The classic.

    A must read for people interested in QM. Accessable to undergraduates, but meaty enough for graduates.
