The overall goal of this calculus-based text is to provide an introduction to physics with a modern point of view. It emphasizes the atomic nature of matter, macro-micro connections, and modeling complex physical systems. The approach is designed to go beyond low-level physics and to build upon readers’ prior preparation. The second volume deals with electricity and magnetism, and with physical optics in terms of the classical interaction of light and matter. Atomic models of matter are again a major theme. A key feature is the unified treatment of electrostatics and circuits in t

It emphasizes the atomic nature of matter, macro-micro connections, and modeling complex physical systems. The approach is designed to go beyond low-level physics and to build upon readers’ prior preparation. The first volume deals with mechanics and thermal physics in a unified way, with strong emphasis on atomic-level description and analysis. The ball-and-spring model of solids is a major theme, culminating in computing the specific heat as a function of temperatur

Matter and Interactions offers a modern curriculum for introductory physics (calculus-based). It presents physics the way practicing physicists view their discipline and integrates 20th Century physics and computational physics. The text emphasizes the small number of fundamental principles that underlie the behavior of matter, and models that can explain and predict a wide variety of physical phenomena. Matter and Interactions will be available as a single volume hardcover text and also two paperback volumes.

There are plenty of books about coping with adversity. But isn’t until now, with WHO SURVIVES, that we discover the human factors that determine survival. It’s a combination instruction book and security blanket that blends compelling true stories with cutting-edge science to deliver some of the most important lessons we’ll ever need to learn. The book will: --list the most important traits necessary for survival (e.g., adaptability, tenacity, faith) --identify the 5 types of survivors--debunk myths (like only the strong survive), explore the frontiers of survival science

Many of our correspondents ask us to define what is meant by the terms "good society" and "bad society." They say that they read in the newspapers of the "good society" in New York and Washington and Newport, and that it is a record of drunkenness, flirtation, bad manners and gossip, backbiting, divorce, and slander. They read that the fashionable people at popular resorts commit all sorts of vulgarities, such as talking aloud at the opera, and disturbing their neighbors; that young men go to a dinner, get drunk, and break glasses; and one ingenuous young girl remarks, "We do not call that goo

Oliver Cromwell as Lord Protector is frequently described as being a King in all but name without much in the way of a coherent, detailed explanation of precisely what this means. This book aims to correct that omission by demonstrating some of the ways in which Cromwell’s rule constituted a monarchical regime in the generally accepted sense of the term, that of a crowned head. We already know from Roy Sherwood’s widely acclaimed The Court of Oliver Cromwell that the Protectoral household provided Cromwell with a regal setting. What is now demonstrated in his fascinating new work O
