Nonclassical Physics Summary

Nonclassical Physics: Beyond Newton's View by Randy Harris

Nonclassical Physics: Beyond Newton's View introduces a wide range of physics principles developed in the past century, providing students with a solid understanding of fundamental ideas upon which more complex concepts are built. Throughout the book the author focuses on key topics of concern today, giving the text a more contemporary approach than most modern physics texts. Through discussions, examples, and exercises involving real-world applications, the author encourages students to apply their newfound understanding quantitatively in all areas of natural science as well as in physics.
