Physics For Engineers And Scientists

• Designed as a compact text/reference to provide students, practicing engineers, and scientists with the complete physical laws from classical mechanics to semiconductor physics.
• Discusses each topic in a concept-task-experiment structure to reinforce theory/practice.
• Provides the reader with the mathematical level that is necessary to master the topics without unnecessary rigor.
• Companion CD-ROM with selected solutions and all of the figures from the book.
