Publisher's Synopsis
Lessons in Physics is a book written by Lothrop Davis Higgins in 1903 that provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of physics. The book is divided into three main sections: Mechanics, Heat, and Light. The Mechanics section covers topics such as motion, force, energy, and work. The Heat section delves into thermodynamics, including temperature, heat transfer, and the laws of thermodynamics. The Light section covers optics, including the properties of light, reflection, refraction, and diffraction.Throughout the book, Higgins uses clear and concise language to explain complex concepts, making it accessible to readers with little or no prior knowledge of physics. The book includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding, as well as exercises and problems to test readers' comprehension.Lessons in Physics is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning the fundamentals of physics. It is also a valuable reference for students and professionals in related fields. Despite being over a century old, the book remains relevant and informative, providing a solid foundation for further study in physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
