| Jan 31, 2018 at 23:08 | comment | added | juan arroyo | These days Brian C. Hall's book Quantum Theory for Mathematicians is hands down the best reference out there for someone in this position. He includes a brief overview of classical mechanics from the symplectic POV, rendering moot much of the discussion below on whether or not one should learn CM first. | |

| Mar 20, 2013 at 1:54 | comment | added | user32157 | I'm very surprised only one person has mentioned Dirac's Principles of Quantum Mechanics. A book on quantum theory from someone who had an enormous impact on the subject, it's very clear and quantum mechanics is cleanly developed and motivated from scratch. It's probably my favorite physics book I've ever read. Moreover it's the only exposition on quantum mechanics that has made sense to me. I highly recommend it. | |
