Here is the textbook that we were given at OSSM as part of the physics training. I started reading it and have not put it down. I am 2/3 through the book in a week. I really makes modern physics principals understandable to the ordinary person.

Physics is always gripping reading, Mr. Crosswhite. I shall seek out that book.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure I want the ordinary person understanding physics principles though; I like the mystique!
