We are in the process of writing a Quantum Mechanics textbook that reflects the way we teach the subject in our junior-year Paradigms courses and our senior-year Capstone course. This material is still undergoing development, but is far enough along that we use it as the text in our own courses. We are happy to have you use the material in your classes. We ask only that you tell us you are using it, so we can follow up with you to get feedback. If you do use the material, make sure you also look at the Quantum Activities page for material to supplement the textbook. Please contact David McIntyre , who is the lead author of the text, if you plan to use the text or need more information.
