About this ebook
(To be translated later into German) This book is designed to support a one-two semester physics option, taken by students of natural science who are not majoring in physics. The author is known for his excellent teaching and with this book he succeeds in conveying an intuitive understanding, often through the use of the many specially drawn colour images. Worked examples are included as part of the text and necessary equations are carefully explained in words. The presentation is relatively concise but nonetheless leads the reader right to the forefront of modern physical theory and experiment. Students, teachers and hobby astronomers alike, will find here a fast and effective entrée to modern physics.
