Section 3.1
script fixed

Section 3.4
narrative change; near bottom of page 26 says"... “check that the momentum is conserved…”  we have deleted the part of the sentence after “conserved."

Section 3.5
narrative change;  footnote on page 31 "Dobson" is actually "Dubson"

Section 4.5
Second parenthetical  (page 38) should state "(the ratio of the charge of the electron to the mass of the electron)"
In footnote (page 39) on "Dobson" is actually "Dubson"

Section 4.7
narrative change;  footnote (page 42)  "Dobson" is actually "Dubson"

Problem 4.8
script fixed

Section 5.1
script fixed

Problem 5.7
narrative and script fixed...it is a single slit

Section 6.4
narrative change; Eq.(6.12) should end with < ∞.

Section 8.2
narrative change; Eq.(8.5) should have a plus (not a minus) in it.

Section 10.2
narrative change;  footnote (page 116) "Heavyside" is actually "Heaviside"

Section 11.2c
script fixed (now E text follows the energy level line)

Section 11.5
narrative fixed (p.134 too) end of second paragraph: "the individual states form an almost continuous band of states"

Section 11.2c
script fixed (now E text follows the energy level line)

Section 12.4
script fixed (internal units fixed)

Problem 12.2
narrative fixed (p. 151 as well) units: (ħ = 2m = 1; ω = k = 2)

Problem 14.5
script fixed (now frequency of animation matches calculated frequency from narrative)
