Bassano Vacchini is a theoretical physicist, currently working as full professor in the Physics Department at the University of Milan. His research started in the field of foundations of quantum mechanics and later moved to the theoretical treatment of open quantum systems. The outline of this book reflects this experience, which gives the book its peculiar twist.

• 1. Quantum mechanics as quantum probability.- 2. Statistical structure of quantum mechanics.- 3. Maps.- 4. Composite systems.- 5. Dynamical evolution.- 6. Weak-coupling master equation.- 7. Memory effects.
