Special Relativity and Classical Field Theory: The Theoretical Minimum: The Theoretical Minimum
Autor Leonard Susskind, Art Friedmanen Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 sep 2017
Physicist
Leonard
Susskind
and
data
engineer
Art
Friedman
are
back.
This
time,
they
introduce
readers
to
Einstein's
special
relativity
and
Maxwell's
classical
field
theory.
Using
their
typical
brand
of
real
math,
enlightening
drawings,
and
humor,
Susskind
and
Friedman
walk
us
through
the
complexities
of
waves,
forces,
and
particles
by
exploring
special
relativity
and
electromagnetism.
It's
a
must-read
for
both
devotees
of
the
series
and
any
armchair
physicist
who
wants
to
improve
their
knowledge
of
physics'
deepest
truths.

approach
is

make
the
path
seem

—Publishers
Weekly"Relativity
and
field
theory
are
absolutely
central
to
modern
physics.
Here
they
are
explained
masterfully,

This
