Quantum Mechanics Made Clear
Taught by Professor Benjamin Schumacher, Kenyon College
Lecture Titles
In its relatively short history, quantum mechanics has radically
changed our perspective on reality and has come to play a critical role in today’s most important technologies. Now, discover
astonishing insights into this remarkable field with Quantum
Mechanics: The Physics of the Microscopic World.
Award-winning Professor Benjamin Schumacher—a founder
of quantum information theory and a fellow of the American
Physical Society—introduces you to the complex phenomena
of quantum mechanics in a way that is both enlightening and
easily accessible. Generously illustrated with diagrams, demonstrations, and experiments, these 24 fascinating lectures are a
great way to master the secrets of this extraordinary discipline.
