Inhaltsangabe
Offering an alternative to the traditional approach to teaching science appreciation, the author has written a book based on his university course. This approach to the introductory physics course for non-science students conveys an understanding and appreciation for the concepts of physics by finding them within specific objects of everyday experience. The text asks readers questions about how the world around them works. In the process of answering the questions, the author shows students the importance of fundamental concepts in physics. Every major physics concept is treated, but should arrive to the student in a real-world context. The book departs from the "physics for physicists" approach of concentrating on physics principles and trying to find applications. It offers a "guided inquiry" approach with experiments described and done by students, and a qualitative focus with "Check Your Understanding" sections.
