The study of physics begins with an introduction to the basic skills and techniques of the study of motion, which will lead to a grasp of the concept of energy and the reasons for the universal concern about our limited energy resources (Chapter 1-7). Then heat energy and the behavior of fluids (Chapters 8-9) are studied. Next, wave phenomena, especially sound, are examined, followed by a study of geometric optics and color (Chapters 10-17). Electricity and magnetism are next (Chapters 18-23). Study is concluded with a look at recent developments in modern physics that have changed the way of looking at the atom and have put nuclear energy at the service of humanity (Chapters 24-27).
