"Motion Mountain by Dr. Christoph Schiller"

A

vailable as a free download in six PDF volumes (206 MB) this is one introductory physics textbook that should flex its shelf muscle alongside the FEYNMAN LECTURES ON PHYSICS in the libraries of all physics aficionados. It compliments Feynman’s magisterial treatment, being less mathematical, but more narrative and conceptual.

Along with a wealth of examples and provocative questions, Dr. Christoph Schiller’s work makes good use of the internet, with dozens of hypertext links to additional material, including animations serving to clarify concepts that are less difficult than they might seem at first. Seeing is understanding.
