The Feynman Lectures on Physics: Commemorative Issue, Volume 2: Mainly Electomagnetism and Matter (Feynman Lectures on Physics)
This three-volume work was originally designed for a two-year introductory physics course given at the California Institute of Technology-a course designed to take advantage of students' increasing mathematical prowess and to provide a more…
The Fermi Solution
The Fermi Solution is a collection of dramatic tales bristling with subplots, vivid characters and suspenseful twists and turns. Its subjects range across the spectrum of physical science, from the monumental to the enigmatic, such as crystals with…
The Exoplanet handbook
With the discovery of planets beyond our solar system 25 years ago, exoplanet research has expanded dramatically, with new state-of-the-art ground-based and space-based missions dedicated to their discovery and characterisation. With more than 3,500…
The Exoplanet handboek
Exoplanet research is one of the most explosive subjects in astronomy today. More than 500 exoplanets are now known, and groups world-wide are actively involved in a broad range of observational and theoretical efforts. This book ties together these…
The exact sciences in antiquity
One of the foremost workers in the area of premodern science presents the standard nontechnical coverage of Egyptian and Babylonian mathematics and astronomy and their transmission into the Hellenistic world, including the especially interesting,…
The evolution of physics
The book has three parts: classical physics, relativity, and quantum physics (there wasn't much particle physics or cosmology in 1938, after all). The classical treatment is an extended examination of Galilean invariance, and is both brilliant and…
The end of time
Richard Feynman once quipped that "Time is what happens when nothing else does." But Julian Barbour disagrees: if nothing happened, if nothing changed, then time would stop. For time is nothing but change. It is change that we perceive occurring all…
The end of physics
The myth of a unified theory: A thought-provoking critique of the search for a unified theory that would define the entire physical world traces the history of particle physics and argues that a unified theory would be untestable, as well as a…
The Ellipse A Historical and Mathematical journey
The Ellipse features a unique, narrative approach when presenting the development of this mathematical fixture, revealing its parallels to mankind's advancement from the Counter-Reformation to the Enlightenment. Incorporating illuminating…
