Features: This textbook is a national-level planning textbook for the 11th Five-Year Plan, as evaluated by the Ministry of Education. It focuses on quality-oriented education, highlighting scientific thinking and methods, with the concepts and methods of symmetry and holism. It intensifies the modernization of teaching content, emphasizing the relativity, quantum mechanics, and nonlinear physics as the main achievements of 20th-century physics, carriers of modern physical thinking methods, and the foundation for new technologies. The book is divided into two volumes, establishing logical connections between concepts based on the establishment of physical models: the first volume discusses macroscopic particles and multi-particle systems, while the second volume discusses fields and microscopic particles. This textbook can be used as a physics textbook for non-physics majors in science and engineering universities, as well as a reference book for teaching staff and students in vocational colleges and correspondence education.
