Modern Physics, 2nd Edition provides a clear, precise, and contemporary introduction to the theory, experiment, and applications of modern physics. Ideal for both physics majors and engineers, this eagerly awaited second edition puts the modern back into modern physics courses. Pedagogical features throughout the text focus the reader on the core concepts and theories while offering optional, more advanced sections, examples, and cutting-edge applications to suit a variety of students and courses.

Critically acclaimed for his lucid style, in the 2nd edition, Randy Harris applies the same insights into recent developments in physics, engineering, and technology.
