本书基于SEARS AND ZEMANSKY’S UNIVERSITY PHYSICS WITH MODERN PHYSICS,13E(《西尔斯当代大学物理》原书第13版),参照高等学校物理基础课程教学指导分委员会制定的《理工科类大学物理课程教学基本要求》(2010年版),依据我国大学生的学习基础和教学大纲的知识点要求改编。本书涵盖了上述教学基本要求中的所有A类知识点,主要内容有力学、热学、电磁学、波动光学、相对论和量子物理。本书的特点是,在改编过程中对内容和习题进行了精选,不仅完全继承了原书的特色,还在行文上完全保留了原版教材原汁原味的表述,其内容和阅读量更适合中国理工科类相关专业作为双语教学的教材,同时可供社会读者阅读。
