Description
Specifications
The 19th century is one of the most interesting periods in the history of physical ideas. Fundamental concepts such as those of energy, heat, or field forces emerged during that time and took their place in the conceptual framework of later Physics.
Energy, Force, and Matter is a very cohesive and focused introduction to the development of these concepts and their understanding through mechanistic models. Written to be accessible to readers without specialized knowledge of Physics and Mathematics, P. Harman's book presents a remarkable synthetic overview of this challenging and multifaceted period, which closes the cycle of what is now called Classical Physics, while towards the end, the signs of the great crisis that followed are already visible.
