About the book
Physics by Marcelo Alonso and Edward Finn approaches the subject of physics from a contemporary viewpoint, integrating the Newtonian, relativistic and quantum descriptions of nature. The text covers all the traditional topics of physics with greater emphasis on the conservation laws, the concepts of field and waves, and the atomic view of matter.
Features
· The special theory of relativity is used throughout the book as one of the guiding principles
· Analysis of physical phenomena is integrated, presenting physics as a unifying science
· Assumes knowledge of, and makes heavy use of integral calculus, unit vectors and vectors in three dimensions
