Fundamental Physics: A Guide to Relativity and Quantum Physics: Textbook Series in Physical Sciences

Autor Martin Bojowald
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 aug 2026
Fundamental Physics: A Guide to Relativity and Quantum Physics presents the two foundational pillars of modern physics, quantum mechanics and general relativity, in a coherent form aimed primarily at upper-level undergraduate students. It provides a unified picture of the underlying field of mathematical physics and the fruitful interactions between different methods and applications. To help students navigate both topics, the book takes a systematic, pedagogical and uniform approach to the underlying theories and applications. This includes detailed discussions of applications, such as in atomic and particle physics, measurements of space and time, black holes and cosmology.
The book is essential for upper-level undergraduate students looking to develop a cohesive understanding of the ways in which quantum mechanics and general relativity are central not only to the challenges and approaches to quantum theories of gravity, but also to gravitational implications on sensitive quantum effects. Worked examples and homework problems are available throughout.
Key Features:
•           Class tested textbook that combines two fundamental topics in modern physics, quantum mechanics and general relativity.
•           Detailed conceptual discussions of physics insights are combined with careful mathematical constructions. 
•           Worked examples are available throughout.
•           Chapter-end homework problems are also included.
