Principles & Practice of Physics, Volume 1 (Chapters 1-21), Global Edition

For courses in introductorycalculus-based physics.

For a strong, deep, andfundamentally simple understanding of physics

Eric Mazur’sgroundbreaking Principles and Practice of Physics establishesan understanding of physics that is thorough and accessible. Mazur’s uniquepedagogy and popular peer-to-peer instruction techniques incorporate insightssupported by physics education research (PER) to help students develop a trueconceptual understanding alongside the quantitative skills needed in thecourse. The material emphasizes core unifying ideas with the first half of eachchapter teaching the ideas using words and images―not mathematics. The secondhalf of each chapter casts the ideas into quantitative and symbolic form. 

The 2nd Edition integrateskey features from the Practice volume into the Principles volumeand provides all Practice volume content in Mastering Physics.The new edition provides new prelecture material that better prepares studentsto come to class ready to participate and supports instructors in buildingactive and relevant lectures.

The combined volume is alsoavailable with Modified Mastering Physics

By combining trusted authorcontent with digital tools and a flexible platform, Mastering personalizes thelearning experience and improves results for each student. Mastering Physicsextends learning and provides students with a platform to practice, learn, andapply knowledge outside of the classroom.
