You know you can’t enjoy a game unless you know its rules; whether it’s a ball game, a computer game, or simply a party game. Likewise, you can’t fully appreciate your surroundings until you understand the rules of nature. Physics is the study of these rules, which show how everything in nature is beautifully connected. So the main reason to study physics is to enhance the way you see the physical world. You’ll see the mathematical structure of physics in frequent equations, but more that being recipes for computation, you’ll see the equations as guides to thinking.
I enjoy physics, and you will too – because you’ll understand it. If you get hooked and take a follow-up course, then you can focus on mathematical problems. Go for comprehension of concepts now, and if computation follows, it will be with understanding.
Enjoy your physics!

This book furthers our understanding by relating important concepts in physics to living systems. Applications of physics in biology and medicine are emphasized, with no previous knowledge of bioloogy required. The analysis is largely quantitative, but only high-school physics and mathematics are assumed. Underlying basic physics appendices. Biological systems are described in only enough detail for physical analysis.
The organization is similar to basic physisics texts: solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, thermodynammics, sound, electrocity, optics, and atomic and nuclear physics. A bibliography gives important sourses for further reading.

Physics, the most fundamental physical science, is concerned with the basic principles of the Universe. It is the foundation upon which the other sciences—astronomy, biology, chemistry, and geology—are based. The beauty of physics lies in the simplicity of the fundamental physical theories and in the manner in which just a small number of fundamental concepts, equations, and assumptions can alter and expand our view of the world around us.

Учебник принципиально нового типа. Материал разделён на обязательный и дополнительный, что позволяет строить процесс обучения с учётом индивидуальных способностей учащихся, включая организацию их самостоятельной работы. Задачи служат как для получения новых знаний, так и для развития навыков исследовательской деятельности.

Данное пособие представляет собой сборник тестов на английском языке по всему курсу общей физики (классическая механика, электромагнетизм, оптика, термодинамика и статистическая физика, квантовая механика, атомная физика, специальная теория относительности, лабораторные методы и специализированные темы). Тестовое задание включает в себя вопрос с пятью вариантами ответов. В конце теста приведены правильные ответы. Этот материал может быть полезен студентам специальности "Физика" с узкой специализацией технического перевода, а также всем лицам, занимающимся самообразованием.

Книга известного российского учёного и популяризатора науки д.т.н. профессора Гулиа Нурбея Владимировича «Удивительная физика». Книга призвана вызвать у читателя удивление – вот, оказывается какая незнакомая, полная тайн и парадоксов эта физика! Вот, сколько необычного и загадочного в ней, сколько вопросов получили новое, иное, чем в учебниках толкование. Многие положения физики, которые казались сухими, сугубо абстрактными, получают материальное подтверждение примерами из живой природы, техники, новых изобретений и открытий.

The Dictionary of Race, Ethnicity and Culture is a fine example of a subject-based professional dictionary. As its very title indicates, it recognizes that the often unrelated areas of race, ethnicity and culture are historically and theoretically inseparable. They feed off each other, and their study involves common conceptual and theoretical tools and forms a coherent area of investigation. The 200 entries cover nearly all the important concepts, and include terms borrowed from ordinary discourse and transformed into technical concepts as well as those specifically coined by social scientists.

The all-time bestseller with a first edition as far back as 1903, later to appear with the 1907 appendix, was written by an amateur (in the true sense of the word) of archery who apparently had an unlimited source of money and time, but only modest background in physics.

Translated by Richard Silverman. Famous Russian work covers basic theory of the more important special functions and their application to specific problems of physics and engineering. Most space devoted to application of cylinder functions and spherical harmonics. Also treated: gamma function, probability integral and related functions, Airy functions, hyper-geometric functions, more.
