About the Book

A 'concepts first' approach to physics

Pearson Physics, Global Edition illustrates how physics applies to everything in our world and how theoretical concepts can be connected to everyday experiences.

Comprehensive yet easy-to-follow discussions break down complex topics into understandable nuggets of knowledge and bolster students' understanding of core topics and overarching principles in physics. Thorough assessments at the end of each chapter allow students to evaluate their progress and reinforce essential skills.

About the Author :

James Walker obtained his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Washington in 1978. He subsequently served as a post-doc at the University of Pennsylvania, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of California at San Diego before joining the physics faculty at Washington State University in 1983. Professor Walker's research interests include statistical mechanics, critical phenomena, and chaos. His many publications on the application of renormalization group theory to systems ranging from absorbed monolayers to binary-fluid mixtures have appeared in Physical Review, Physical Review Letters, Physica, and a host of other publications. He has also participated in observations on the summit of Mauna Kea, looking for evidence of extrasolar planets.

Jim Walker likes to work with students at all levels, from judging elementary school science fairs to writing research papers with graduate students, and has taught introductory physics for many years. His enjoyment of this course and his empathy for students have earned him a reputation as an innovative, enthusiastic, and effective teacher. Jim's educational publications include 'Reappearing Phases' (Scientific American, May 1987) as well as articles in the American Journal of Physics and The Physics Teacher. In recognition of his contributions to the teaching of physics at Washington State University, Jim was named Boeing Distinguished Professor of Science and Mathematics Education for 2001-2003.
