Description
Book SynopsisPoses problems in the areas of mechanics, electricity and magnetism, quantum mechanics, and thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. This title covers such topics as condensed matter, relativity and astrophysics, nuclear physics, elementary particles, and atomic and general physics.
Trade Review"A glance at the problems shows that they have been carefully selected to cover a wide range of different topics... What is most surprising about these problems is the incredible range and depth of subject matter."--American Journal of Physics
