This book starts from a set of common basic principles to establish the basic formalisms of all disciplines of fundamental physics, including quantum field theory, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, general relativity, electromagnetism, and classical mechanics. Instead of the traditional pedagogic way, the author arranges the subjects and formalisms in a logical order, i.e. all the formulas are derived from the formulas before them. The formalisms are also kept self-contained. Most mathematical tools are given in the appendices. Although this book covers all the disciplines of fundamental physics, it contains only a single volume because the contents are kept concise and treated as an integrated entity, which is consistent with the motto that simplicity is beauty, unification is beauty, and thus physics is beauty.This can be used as an advanced textbook for graduate students. It is also suitable for physicists who wish to have an overview of fundamental physics.
This guide arms engineers with the tools to apply key physics concepts in the field. It includes commentary, sample problems, examples and end-of-chapter problems to make the subject more engaging.
Principles of Physics is a well-established popular textbook which has been completely revised and updated.
