Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Physics, Designed for Use as a Textbook of General Physics It also presents the subject in the way in which it can most easily be apprehended. The progress of discovery has been along the lines of least intellectual resistance, and it is probable that what was easiest to discover once will now be the easiest to understand. It further enables us to pursue the argument whereby a physical law is established, sometimes almost in the words, and generally along the course of thought, of its original discoverer, so that the mind is brought into intimate relationship with the great minds of the past, and experiences the intellectual exhilaration which such a relationship always brings with it. A fairly faithful adherence to my plan has resulted in the necessary omission of many details of fact and theory which are commonly presented in textbooks of physics. For these the student must look to the course of experimental lectures or of laboratory practice, one or both of which should form part of a course of instruction in which this book is used. To illustrate the principles discussed and to introduce many important theorems without breaking up too much the continuity of the argument, I have made use of the examples which are placed in groups in various parts of the book. With the same purpose, some of the demonstrations of theorems which are of first importance in themselves, but the formal demonstration of which is of secondary importance for the student, have been put in fine print. The use of the historical outline accounts for what is nowadays the unusual order followed in the presentation of some of the subjects. It leads to a much fuller discussion of statics than is generally given, and to other peculiar features of the treatment, such as the use of the statical measure of force, the belated introduction of the relations of heat to energy, the use of the method of rays in geometrical optics, and to other minor divergences from common practice. In the alternative methods which are frequently employed, the true inductive order is either avoided or obscured, and the course of thought followed is neither natural nor that which would be followed by an investigator. I have ventured to name the book Principles of Physics, not to make a claim that it presents a complete and critical study of the foundations of the subject, but to indicate the object which, however imperfectly, I have tried to attain, that is, the exposition of the principal physical laws and theories in the light of the arguments by which they were established.

Download or read book Understanding Physics written by Colm O'Sullivan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-05-18 with total page 1084 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Physics – Second edition is a comprehensive, yet compact, introductory physics textbook aimed at physics undergraduates and also at engineers and other scientists taking a general physics course. Written with today's students in mind, this text covers the core material required by an introductory course in a clear and refreshing way. A second colour is used throughout to enhance learning and understanding. Each topic is introduced from first principles so that the text is suitable for students without a prior background in physics. At the same time the book is designed to enable students to proceed easily to subsequent courses in physics and may be used to support such courses. Mathematical methods (in particular, calculus and vector analysis) are introduced within the text as the need arises and are presented in the context of the physical problems which they are used to analyse. Particular aims of the book are to demonstrate to students that the easiest, most concise and least ambiguous way to express and describe phenomena in physics is by using the language of mathematics and that, at this level, the total amount of mathematics required is neither large nor particularly demanding. 'Modern physics' topics (relativity and quantum mechanics) are introduced at an earlier stage than is usually found in introductory textbooks and are integrated with the more 'classical' material from which they have evolved. This book encourages students to develop an intuition for relativistic and quantum concepts at as early a stage as is practicable. The text takes a reflective approach towards the scientific method at all stages and, in keeping with the title of the text, emphasis is placed on understanding of, and insight into, the material presented.
