What, you don't even know how to 'compactify the spatial dimension'?

You jest, but I've seen the compactification (using periodic boundary condition) mentioned - and explained - in a popular science book about quantum mechanics.

Which book? I did a Master's in Physics but a while ago so it'd be nice to read something somewhat technical (but not too much).

An intro to QM by A.Zagoskin. It is indeed somewhat more technical than most pop-science books.
