Relevante Konzepte der klassischen Physik werden wiederholt, wo es fur das Verstandnis des Stoffes erforderlich ist. Alle mathematischen Herleitungen hat der Autor in moglichst einfacher Form aufbereitet. Motivation zum Lernen schopft der Leser aus der Diskussion des seltsamen Verhaltens quantenmechanischer Teilchen.\u003cbr\u003e  Foreword.  \u003cp\u003eEditor's preface to the Manchester Physics Series.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAuthor's Preface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1.
