Book Details

Preface This is a two-year elementary college physics course for students majoring in science and engineering. The intention of the writers has been to present elementary physics as far as possible in the way in which it is used by physicists working on the forefront of their field. We have sought to make a course that would vigorously emphasize the foundations of physics. Our specific objectives were to introduce coherently into an elementary curriculum the ideas of special relativity, of quantum physics, and of statistical physics.
This classic text is widely considered to be the best overall introductory text book on the subject . It has a complete and integrated coverage suitable for someone who wants to understand the underlying concepts of the subject.

About the Author

Born in New York City on 18 July 1916, Charlie entered MIT in 1934. He moved to Cambridge University in 1936 and received his BA there two years later. He earned his PhD degree in 1941 from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where his adviser was Gregory Breit. From 1940 to 1942, Charlie worked on problems in degaussing and magnetic mine warfare at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory. He served in the US Navy as a research physicist at a British Admiralty research establishment in Scotland and as a naval attaché at the US Embassy in London; he went on to work on antisubmarine warfare and operations research in Washington, DC, and London. In 1945 he returned to MIT, taking a position in the Research Laboratory of Electronics.
