Book Description

The 2000 year history of the atom and chemistry, from the Classic Greek Era to the present, is described in 800 pages, depicted with some 300 pictures and illustrations. This history of the atom and chemistry discusses the lives of about 180 chemists and physicists, through the evolution of several stages of development, representing the most important scientific accomplishments.

• Marie Curie and the Science of Radioactivity (Naomi Pasachoff)

  Marie Curie discovered radium and went on to lead the scientific community in studying the theory behind and the uses of radioactivity. She left a vast legacy to future scientists through her research, her teaching, and her contributions to the welfare of humankind.

• The Feynman Lectures on Physics (Richard P. Feynman, et al.)

  Ranging from the most basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as general relativity and quantum mechanics, Feynman's lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight.

• Relativity: The Special and General Theory (Albert Einstein)

  The great physicist himself disclaimed this exclusionary view, and in this book, he explains both theories in their simplest and most intelligible form for the layman not versed in the mathematical foundations of theoretical physics.

• The Einstein Theory of Relativity (Hendrik A. Lorentz)

  The books published on the subject are so technical that only a person trained in pure physics and higher mathematics is able to fully understand them. In order to make a popular explanation of this far-reaching theory available, the present book is published.

• An Advanced Course in General Relativity (Eric Poisson)

  Focusing on conceptual clarity, he derives all the basic results in the simplest way, taking care to explain the physical, philosophical and mathematical ideas at the heart of "the most beautiful of all scientific theories".

• People's Physics Book (James H. Dann, et al.)

  This book provides a reference guide to the topics covered in most introductory physics courses. This book is geared towards students in a college-level introductory physics class, but can be used at the high school level.

• The Physics of Quantum Mechanics (James Binney, et al.)

  This book aims to give students a good understanding of how quantum mechanics describes the material world. It shows that the theory follows naturally from the use of probability amplitudes to derive probabilities.

• Principles of Mechanics: Fundamental University Physics

  This textbook takes the reader step-by-step through the concepts of mechanics in a clear and detailed manner. Many proofs and examples are included to help the reader grasp the fundamentals fully, paving the way to deal with more advanced topics.

• Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics

  This innovative textbook concentrates on developing general methods for studying the behavior of classical systems. It focuses on the phenomenon of motion and makes extensive use of computer simulation in its explorations of the topic.

• Variational Principles in Classical Mechanics (Douglas Cline)

  This book introduces variational principles and their application to classical mechanics. The relative merits of the intuitive Newtonian vectorial formulation, and the more powerful variational formulations are compared.

• Lecture Notes on Classical Mechanics (Sunil Golwala)

  You will learn a variety of new techniques and formalism that will allow you to attack a wider set of problems than you saw in the introductory sequences, more unified understanding of the structure and fundamental principles of classical physics.

• Introduction to Classical and Quantum Computing (Tom Wong)

  This book is for students who want to learn quantum computing beyond a conceptual level, but who lack advanced training in mathematics. The only prerequisite is trigonometry, and mathematics beyond that will be covered.

• Quantum Computing for the Quantum Curious

  This open access book makes quantum computing more accessible than ever before. It bridges the gap between popular science articles and advanced textbooks by making key ideas accessible with just high school physics as a prerequisite.

• Geometry with an Introduction to Cosmic Topology

  The text uses Mobius transformations in the extended complex plane to define and investigate these three candidate geometries, thereby providing a natural setting in which to express results common to them all, as well as results that encapsulate key differences.

• Marie Curie and the Science of Radioactivity (Naomi Pasachoff)

  Marie Curie discovered radium and went on to lead the scientific community in studying the theory behind and the uses of radioactivity. She left a vast legacy to future scientists through her research, her teaching, and her contributions to the welfare of humankind.

• Statistical Mechanics of Lattice Systems: Mathematical Introduction

  This motivating textbook gives a friendly, rigorous introduction to fundamental concepts in equilibrium statistical mechanics, covering a selection of specific models, including the Curie–Weiss and Ising models, the Gaussian free field, etc.

• An Introduction to Particle Physics and the Standard Model

  This book familiarizes readers with what is considered tested and accepted and in so doing, gives them a grounding in particle physics in general, takes an historical approach showing how the model is linked to the physics in less challenging areas.
