This book gives the reader a lucid and readable account of the basic concepts of physics covering a broad range, where all the concepts are built up from an elementary level and are followed up to a considerable extent, stressing on their internal logic. It is self-contained and comprehensive, based on high school mathematics, including elementary calculus. A few mathematical tools at a more advanced level like surface integrals of vector fields have been explained clearly before these have been made use of.

It will be useful study material for the student of physics starting from the advanced school level right up to the college level and even to the level of graduate studies since it does not stop half way while developing a topic, being tied to this or that particular physics syllabus. Instead, it aims at presenting the entire network made up of basic concepts of physics and giving the reader a view of its beautiful, unitary structure.

This makes the volume a unique source-book of basic physics, of exceptional value not only to the student of physics but to students of other disciplines such as chemistry, engineering, geology and even the biological sciences. It is also quite likely to be of value to physics teachers and to persons with a general interest in physics. It makes for delightful reading, though at a serious level.

How does the tension vary with the angle of winding for a string under friction? How does the Doppler formula look when the source or the observer possesses an acceleration? What is the principle of a three phase power supply? How does a synchronous motor differ from an asynchronous one? Whys is it possible to work out the black body spectrum by referring to an assembly of oscillators? How does ray optics relate to wave optics? What is the Higgs boson?..... For these and many other questions, the reader can turn to the pages of this book, where everything is built up from first principles.
