About this ebook

In the strange world of quantum mechanics the application of visualization techniques is particularly rewarding, for it allows us to depict phenomena that cannot be seen by any other means. Visual Quantum Mechanics relies heavily on visualization as a tool for mediating knowledge. The book is accompanied by about 320 digital movies which can be downloaded from the publisher's website at https://extras.springer.com/?query=978-0-387-98929-7

These computer-generated animations are used to introduce, motivate, and illustrate the concepts of quantum mechanics that are explained in the book. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then my hope is that each short animation (consisting of about a hundred frames) will be worth a hundred thousand words.
