Everything you would expect in a book from the "Dummies" series. For the price, not worth sending it back.
This is a Quantum Mechanics refresher, not an introduction, and you'll need some university-level maths behind you in order to follow it. I think the paper was catching in machinery at the factory.
perhaps the title is misleading. So in that sense, it's a crib-sheet for somebody hoping to pass the final exams of their physics degree! )
In my case some of the pages had slight tears at the edges. It doesn't look like the damage was caused by Amazon employees. Unintimidating and well structured.
It does place into context all the random snippets you may have picked up about Quantum Physics, and gives the mathematics associated with things you already knew. It's very definitely not a book for the absolute beginner. (I just knocked off a star.
