Reviews
'Felder and Felder's Modern Physics is by far the most student-centered comprehensive modern physics text I've seen. The text places strong emphasis not just on solving problems but on helping students understand the meaning of the solutions. The authors provide gentle but thorough introductions to useful mathematical techniques beyond differentiation and integration that students will undoubtedly find very useful in their intermediate-level physics studies. Active learning is well integrated into the text in the form of Discovery Exercises and Active Reading Exercises; assessment is also integrated through Quick Check and Conceptests. Readers will find a broad range of useful tools on the book's website, and the text is sufficiently modular to allow instructors and lifelong learners to select portions of chapters in which they're most interested for detailed study. I highly recommend this text.' Daniel Fleisch, Wittenberg University, 'Finally, a textbook with more than just formulas and details: clear and easy-to-understand explanations which guide the newcomer to a real intuitive understanding. Felder and Felder share the fun and wonder of learning about the mind-bending notions of modern physics with an enthusiasm that jumps off the page.' Daniel Whiteson, University of California, Irvine, 'An excellent example of how to apply current physics education research. The textbook covers all the usual material you'd expect for a modern physics course, but presented in a more organic fashion. Each topic is built from a conceptual basis first, with simple examples, and then the mathematics are brought in to complete the discussion. I feel students will achieve a much deeper understanding using this text, and look forward to teaching with it.' Susan A. DiFranzo, Hudson Valley Community College, 'Felder and Felder is suitable for a variety of teaching styles, from active learning to more traditional lecture-based classes, and everything in between. The authors give simple, intuitive explanations of topics that are challenging to students whose exposure to physics is limited to introductory-level college courses. It has the welcomed feature of discussing some really modern physics like molecular, nuclear, and particle physics and cosmology.' Paulo Bedaque, University of Maryland

Synopsis
A pedagogically rich approach to Modern Physics, this textbook supports student learning with extensive question and problem sets, active learning exercises, and online resources. Students benefit from accessible and thorough explanations, math interludes covering prerequisite material, and advanced topics to further their interest in physics., Modern Physics intertwines active learning pedagogy with the material typically covered in an introductory survey, from the basics of relativity and quantum mechanics through recent developments in particle physics and cosmology. The flexible approach taken by the authors allows instructors to easily incorporate as much or as little active learning into their teaching as they choose. Chapters are enhanced by 'Discovery' and 'Active Reading' exercises to guide students through key ideas before or during class, while 'ConcepTests' help check student understanding and stimulate classroom discussions. Each chapter also includes extensive assessment material, with a range of basic comprehension questions, drill and practice calculations, computer-based problems, and explorations of advanced applications. A test bank and interactive animations as well as other support for instructors and students are available online. Students are engaged by an accessible and lively writing style, thorough explanations, 'Math Interludes' which account for varying levels of skill and experience, and advanced topics to further pique their interest in physics.
