Title: Great for three chapters...
Review: This is the best grad quantum book I have read so far. The first three chapters (Fundamental Concepts, Quantum Dynamics, and Angular Momentum) of the book are wonderfully done. These chapters, I believe, were completed by Sakurai before his untimely passing. The rest of the book seems to lack Sakurai's clarity but it does an adequate job tackling this difficult subject. Whether the lack of clarity is due to the increasing difficulty of the subject matter or the fact Sakurai didn't write it is unclear to me. After going through the whole book I only disliked the presentation of chapters four and six (Symmetry and Identical particles). These chapters were less mathematical and were more theoretical and could have used Sakurai's magic touch. The book was a great resource for a grad quantum class.
