问 HN：关于现代物理学的阐释性/简洁书籍
1 分•作者: rramadass•6 个月前
有哪些好书能让你总览现代物理学（或者更好，整个物理学）？只要清晰易懂，从本科水平开始，数学上的严谨性是可以接受的。针对这里提到的每个领域，可以参考这个链接：https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_physics
我关注了John Dirk Walecka的著作（https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dirk_Walecka），它们看起来很不错，特别是世界科学出版社出版的那些。包括三卷本的《导论》、《高级现代物理学专题》以及《经典力学》、《量子力学》、《统计力学》、《电磁学》、《广义相对论》的导论卷。https://www.worldscientific.com/author/Walecka%2C+John+Dirk?PubType=book&startPage=&target=bookTitleSearch&content=bookTitle
Dover出版社有Robert Sproull的《现代物理学》，但似乎有点过时了。https://store.doverpublications.com/products/9780486783260
Springer出版社有S.H.Patil的《现代物理学要素》，看起来比较新。https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-70143-7
有没有人使用过这些书，无论是学习还是教学？如果这里有知识渊博的人能对此提供一些见解，我将不胜感激。
还有哪些书能提供类似的领域概述？
另外，也请推荐一些能提供所需数学背景知识的书籍。
PS：我发现旧苏联时代的Ivanov的《物理学基础》对于总览很有用。https://mirtitles.org/2018/04/21/fundamentals-of-physics-ivanov/

What are some good books which give an overview of all of Modern Physics (or even better, all of Physics)? Mathematical rigour is fine as long as they are clear and starting from undergrad level. Books for each of the quadrants mentioned here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_physics<p>I have my eye on John Dirk Walecka's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dirk_Walecka) books which seem pretty good particularly the ones published by World Scientific Publishing. Three vols on Introduction, Advanced, Topics on Modern Physics and Introduction vols on Classical Mechanics, Quantum Mechanics, Statistical Mechanics, Electricity & Magnetism, General Relativity. - https://www.worldscientific.com/author/Walecka%2C+John+Dirk?PubType=book&startPage=&target=bookTitleSearch&content=bookTitle<p>Dover has Robert Sproull's <i>Modern Physics</i> which seems a bit old. - https://store.doverpublications.com/products/9780486783260<p>Springer has S.H.Patil's <i>Elements of Modern Physics</i> which seems up to date. - https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-70143-7<p>Does anybody have experience with these books both studying and teaching from? I would appreciate it if the knowledgeable folks here can shed some light on this.<p>What other books provide similar overview of the domain?<p>Also suggestions on books which provide the needed background Mathematics.<p>PS: I am finding the the old Soviet era book <i>Fundamentals of Physics by Ivanov</i> quite useful to get an overview - https://mirtitles.org/2018/04/21/fundamentals-of-physics-ivanov/
