Features: This book is a research outcome of the "Reform Plan for Teaching Content and Curriculum Systems in Higher Education Towards the 21st Century" by the Ministry of Education. It is a "21st Century Curriculum Textbook," a key textbook for the "Nineth Five-Year Plan" of the State Education Commission in general higher education, and a "Nineth Five-Year Plan" textbook for the Teaching Guidance Committee of Physics and Astronomy in Science Education under the Ministry of Education. Based on the development and requirements of modern physics, this book integrates content from modern physics such as relativity and quantum mechanics into the curriculum, establishing a new system. It also organically combines the latest achievements in the modern development of physics with the fundamental principles of physics. To facilitate teaching, the book inherits the strengths of the original textbook—presenting complex concepts in an accessible manner and adhering to teaching principles. The book consists of 18 chapters, divided into two volumes. It can be used as a textbook or teaching reference for foundational physics courses in non-physics science disciplines at universities and colleges, as well as for other professionals and general readers.
