Excerpt from Physics
Within the last twenty years the methods of teaching physics have been revolutionized. The reaction against the loose and desultory methods previously in vogue was started by the em phasis given to laboratory work in the new books which then appeared. The movement gained impetus from the influence brought to bear on 'the schools by the Harvard Entrance Require ments and the Report of the Committee of Ten. This pressure on the schools resulted in a demand for closer observation by the students, involving careful measurements.
As far as science is concerned, the most important result of this introduction of laboratory work into the schools has been the development in the public mind of a widespread recognition of the fundamental principle that knowledge is real and living to the individual, only when it is founded on personally observed facts and personal experience.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. Physics is traditionally seen as a complex subject but it's also an exciting one with profound implications for the real world. This book approaches physics using an easygoing style that leads readers to see how forces of nature work and how they can be harnessed. Physics is all about the phenomena around us and while this book takes a historical perspective, it does so without bogging the reader down in mathematics. The book opens doors to science by introducing the heroes and thinkers who developed these concepts and the methods they used to reach conclusions. By removing difficulty from the equations and replacing them with physical arguments, this book makes what can be a dry subject into an exciting learning experience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781331523109_0
