User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐The Kindle version of this book is awful. Random’ bitsof punc,tuation and run-on sentences combined with a complete lack of formatting render this version unreadable unless you like your books to read like a Reddit thread.

⭐Asimov patiently and cogently wends his way from Classical physical theory to Modern theory, without, it seems, breaking a sweat. This is, as Asimov points out, a book largely about the collapse of Newtonian physics. I particularly liked his chapters on light, color, magnetism and electrostatics. This book would be a great elementary physics text.

⭐Asimov presents these aspects of phyiscs in bite-size pieces that anyone can digest. He uses everyday examples and only one or two simple equations to add emphasis. He explains where the math comes from and uses small diagrams to add a visual context. Some of the things he talks about are slightly out of date, but the history of the science is still interesting and enlightening. In general, the book is a bit of a snoozer, even for the hard-core science geek, but definitely worth reading for anyone who wants to understand these aspects of physics better.

⭐this is not a book. The text is intermingled with page numbers and footers and chapter headers. look at the sample for an idea of its quality.
