Particle Physics for Non-Physicists: A Tour of the Microcosmos
Would you like to know how the universe works?
The science that has found many of the answers to that profound and age-old question is particle physics: the study of those impossibly tiny particles with unbelievably strange names: bosons and leptons, quarks and neutrinos.
In Particle Physics for Non-Physicists: A Tour of the Microcosmos, Professor Steven Pollock translates the language of the remarkable science that, in only 100 years, has unlocked the secrets of the basic forces of nature.

A fascinating exploration of the science of the impossible—from death rays and force fields to invisibility cloaks—revealing to what extent such technologies might be achievable decades or millennia into the future.
Physics 2009 (high school) balances a conceptual study of physics with quantitative problem solving that is demonstrated in consistent, four-step method. This method provides students with a framework that helps them solve problems effectively, from identifying givens and unknowns and making a diagram to evaluating the answer.
The main goal of this book of to establish and define the connection of those two fields with condensed matter physics. The text presents a general overview of analogies between phenomena in condensed matter physics on one hand and quantum field theory and elementary particle physics on the other. Physicists will find a wealth of powerful and entertaining ideas in this highly original work.
Thinkwell's Physics I with Steven Pollock and Ephraim Fischbach lays the foundation for success because, unlike a traditional textbook, students actually like using it. Thinkwell works with the learning styles of students who have found that traditional textbooks are not effective. Watch one Thinkwell video lecture and you'll understand why Thinkwell works better.
