For the Love of Physics

Author: Walter Levin, Warren Goldstein

Most of us are not very good with physics: We see physics as a series of complex formulas unconnected with "real life", and therefore find it incomprehensible, frightening and boring. Dutch astronomer Walter Lewin, who was well aware of this problem, devoted himself to showing his students that physics was not what they thought during the forty-three years he taught at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and he was very successful in this regard.

The most important feature of Lewin, who captured the hearts and minds of students with the lessons he gave, is that he takes physics out of theory and puts it into practice, offering students the opportunity to participate in physics instead of drowning them in formulas. Lewin, who provides extremely entertaining and enlightening experiences to both the students and the large audience who follow his lessons on the internet with the crazy experiments he conducts in the classroom, offers the same opportunity to his readers in For the Love of Physics.
