Shankar, Ramamurti,

Fundamentals of physics II: Electromagnetism, optics, and quantum mechanics/ Electromagnetism, optics, and quantum mechanics [by] R. Shankar. - New Haven: Yale University Press, c2016 - xvi, 592 p. : ill. ; 24 cm. - The Open Yale courses series . - Open Yale courses series. .

"This is the companion volume to Fundamentals of physics: mechanics, relativity, and thermodynamics. It is the second half of an introductory course taught a Yale and it covers electromagnetism, optics, and quantum mechanics."--Preface. Includes index.

R. Shankar, a well-known physicist and contagiously enthusiastic educator, was among the first to offer a course through the innovative Open Yale Course program. His popular online video lectures on introductory physics have been viewed over a million times. In this second book based on his online Yale course, Shankar explains essential concepts, including electromagnetism, optics, and quantum mechanics. The book begins at the simplest level, develops the basics, and reinforces fundamentals, ensuring a solid foundation in the principles and methods of physics.
