About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book provides a collection of problems and solutions in physics targeting mainly undergraduate students. … The book focuses mainly on basic problems in quantum mechanics, nuclear physics and particle physics. … the book could be a useful addition to problem and solution books in physics for undergraduate students.” (Willi-Hans Steeb, zbMATH, Vol. 1271, 2013)
“Kamal … has prepared an excellent resource for physics professors and students. … The solutions give enough detail to understand how to solve the problems without being pedantic. … The level of the material makes this a great book for upper-level undergraduates studying the topics for the first time, a very good resource for graduate students looking to review the material … and a good resource for professors seeking example problems or quiz/exam problems. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Academic libraries serving upper-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty.” (D. B. Mason, Choice, Vol. 48 (5), January, 2011)Authors and Affiliations
