Particle Physics Brick by Brick
By Ben Still
A unique and fascinating exploration of the building blocks that make up our universe, using LEGO R to demonstrate and elucidate.
Why the Universe Exists
By New Scientist
Why The Universe Exists takes you deep into the world of particle physics to explore how the universe functions at the smallest scales.
How To Understand E =mc2
By Christophe Galfard
It is the most famous equation in the world, and yet most of us do not know its significance. Leading theoretical physicist Christophe Galfard, who was trained by Stephen Hawking, explains it all in a way that is accessible and pertinent to the world in which we live in.
Modern Classical Physics: Optics, Fluids, Plasmas, Elasticity, Relativity, and Statistical Physics
By Kip S. Thorne
Covers the fundamental concepts and twenty-first-century applications of six major areas of classical physics that every masters- or PhD-level physicist should be exposed to, but often isn't: statistical physics, optics waves of all sorts, elastodynamics, fluid mechanics, plasma physics, and special and general relativity and cosmology.
Michael Faraday and the Electrical Century Icon Science
By Iwan Morus
The fascinating world of Michael Faraday
Fundamentals of Ionizing Radiation Dosimetry: Solutions to the Exercises
By Pedro Andreo
Quantum Statistical Field Theory
By Norman J. Morgenstern Horing
The methods of coupled quantum field theory, which have played a major role in the extensive development of nonrelativistic quantum many-particle theory and condensed matter physics, are at the core of this book.
Stochastic Processes and Random Matrices
This text covers in detail recent developments in the field of stochastic processes and Random Matrix Theory. Matrix models have been playing an important role in theoretical physics for a long time and are currently also a very active domain of research in mathematics.
30-Second Physics
By Brian Clegg
30-Second Physics tackles the big ideas, from electromagnetic waves that enable us to connect in an instant to the gravity that keeps our feet firmly on the ground.
Lazy Universe
By Jennifer Coopersmith
The Principle of Least Action underlies all physics and leads into quantum mechanics and Einstein's Relativity. There are some textbooks that do the calculations, and one book with nice pictures, but no book before this one that explains what 'action' is, and why nature follows this principle.
