Book Description

The sixth version of How Things Work (PDF) provides a straightforward introduction to physics for students who are not majoring in the field. In the same way as the other versions, this one utilizes commonplace objects that students are already familiar with in the form of case studies to illustrate the most fundamental physics ideas that are relevant to day-to-day living. In his work, Lou Bloomfield deconstructs machines that appear to be extremely complicated in order to demonstrate that, at their core, they are based on straightforward physical principles.
