Summary: This book present physics concepts and principles in a way that emphasizes the inner coherence and wonder of the material world, not merely a jumble of unexciting equations. It features clear and concise discussion on even the most difficult physics topics. As such, the book engages STEM students - not just engineering or mathematics students - to gain a deeper understanding of the physical world as they learn sbout force, motion and energy, and how knowledge of these and other physical phenomena help them define their place in the universe.
