Mar 25, 2011 at 23:48 comment added Dick Palais @John Sidles Sorry, no, this first volume treats only classical mechanics from its first page to the last. Mike plans eventually to have a volume on QM, but that will probably be well in the future. (He told me that E & M is next on his list.) Dick Palais
Mar 25, 2011 at 17:33 comment added John Sidles Thank you for this post Dick ... our UW Quantum Systems Engineering (QSE) Group has just now ordered Spivak's book! Might you say whether quantum dynamics is discussed in it? (as yet, it's not on Google Books) E.g., Chapter 3 of Slichter's "Principles of Magnetic Resonance" (and indeed the rest of the book) is concerned with certain (quantum) conservation laws associated to spin transport. These laws are exact also on classical state-spaces and (amazingly to us) even on arbitrary-rank tensor-network state-spaces. We wish we understood this better, and we hope that Spivak may explain it!
