Features: The first part of this book includes three sections: "Fundamentals of Newtonian Mechanics and Special Relativity," "Thermodynamics," and "Electromagnetism," while the second part includes three sections: "Vibrations and Waves," "Wave Optics," and "Fundamentals of Quantum Physics," totaling 26 chapters. It organizes the entire A-class content and the majority of the B-class content of the basic teaching requirements for university physics courses in science and engineering disciplines in a cognitively logical order, constructing a knowledge network for fundamental physics. The book provides a systematic and comprehensive explanation of the basic concepts and theories of physics. It particularly emphasizes the integration of scientific methods (modeling, deduction, induction, systematic thinking, analogy) throughout the text, which serves as the guiding spirit for all the material. It actively links higher mathematics to directly address the difficulties of learning physics. The content is connected to practical applications, broadening horizons. The main text includes a wealth of examples to aid self-study. This book can be used as a university physics textbook for science and engineering disciplines or as a teaching reference for high school physics teachers.
