From the publisher

Key Benefit: Elegant, engaging, exacting, and concise, Giancoli's Physics: Principles with Applications with MasteringPhysics(R), Seventh Edition, helps readers view the world through eyes that know physics. Giancoli's book is a trusted classic, known for its elegant writing, clear presentation, and quality of content. Starting with concrete observations and experiences students can relate to, the text then moves on to the great generalizations of physics. This approach demonstrates why we believe what we believe and reflects the way science is practiced. Written with the goal of giving readers a thorough understanding of all of the basic concepts of physics, the book uses interesting applications to biology, medicine, architecture, and digital technology to show readers how useful physics is in their own everyday lives and in their future professions. Key Topics: Introduction, Measurement, Estimating, Describing Motion: Kinematics in One Dimension, Kinematics in Two Dimensions; ectors, Dynamics: Newton's Laws of Motion, Circular Motion; Gravitation, Work and Energy, Linear Momentum, Rotational Motion, Static Equilibrium; Elasticity and Fracture, Fluids, Oscillations and Waves, Sound, Temperature and Kinetic heory, Heat, The Laws of Thermodynamics, Electric Charge and Electric Field, Electric Potential, Electric Currents, DC Circuits, Magnetism, Electromagnetic Induction and Farady's Law, Electromagnetic Waves, Light: Geometric Optics, The Wave Nature of Light, Optical Instruments, The Special Theory of Relativity, Early Quantum Theory and Models of the Atom, Quantum Mechanics of Atoms, Molecules and Solids, Nuclear Physics and Radioactivity, Nuclear Energy; Effects and Uses of Radiation, Elementary Particles, Astrophysics and Cosmology Market: Intended for those interested in gaining a basic knowledge of physics.

About the author

Douglas C. Giancoli obtained his BA in physics (summa cum laude) from UC Berkeley, his MS in physics at MIT, and his PhD in elementary particle physics back at the UC Berkeley. He spent 2 years as a post-doctoral fellow at UC Berkeley's Virus lab developing skills in molecular biology and biophysics. His mentors include Nobel winners Emilio Segr and Donald Glaser. He has taught a wide range of undergraduate courses, traditional as well as innovative ones, and continues to update his textbooks meticulously, seeking ways to better provide an understanding of physics for students. Doug's favorite spare-time activity is the outdoors, especially climbing peaks. He says climbing peaks is like learning physics: it takes effort and the rewards are great.
