Geometric Quantization in Action Applications of Harmonic Analysis in Quantum Statistical Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory
Approach your problems from the right It isn't that they can't see the solution. It end and begin with the answers. Then, is that they can't see the problem. one day, perhaps you will fmd the final question. G. K. Chesterton, The Scandal of Father Brown 'The Point of a Pin'....
