This volume presents an A-level text following on from "Introducing Mechanics" by the same authors. The two books cover the requirements for Mechanics as part of double-certificate Mathematics for any examination board. The content is designed to accommodate the A-level specifications for 2000. The book includes examination questions as well as exercises within chapters.
"Introducing Mechanics" has been written to cover all the Mechanics requirements for single-subject A Level. Through the nature of its style and contents it is ideal for both A- and AS-Level Mechanics. The key points are: clear text and style; includes worked examples so that students can work alone; and exercises and examination questions.
How Physics Confronts Reality: Einstein Was Correct, but Bohr Won the GameThis book recalls, for nonscientific readers, the history of quantum mechanics, the main points of its interpretation, and Einstein's objections to it, together with the responses engendered by his arguments. Most popular discussions on the strange aspects of quantum mechanics ignore the fundamental fact that Einstein was correct in his insistence that the theory does not directly describe reality. While that fact does not remove the theory's counterintuitive features, it casts them in a different light.
Popular Mechanics Magazine: Lets be honest. You pride yourself on being a jack-of-all-trades, but when it comes to those tough fix-it projects, you arent quite up to par. Or maybe you are an expert handyman, but need a little refresher on certain aspects. Popular Mechanics is designed for both the master and the novice. The premiere do-it-yourself magazine features how-to articles on electronics, woodworking, home improvement, science and technology and automotive repair. Reviews of new products as well. Simply put, it is the only fix-it resource you need.
Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations for Scientists and Engineers, 2 Ed
"An exceptionally complete overview. There are numerous examples and the emphasis is on applications to almost all areas of science and engineering. There is truly something for everyone here.this reviewer feels that it is a very hard act to follow, and recommends it strongly. [This book] is a jewel."-Applied Mechanics Review
