Here is the essential guide to physics, an authoritative reference book and timeline that examines the foundations upon which all scientific knowledge rests. Without physics, everything else-from astronomy to zoology-would be a meaningless conjecture.
Our journey begins with the first attempts to understand reality, Mother Nature-or as the ancient Greeks called it, physis. Follow the journey through history as great scientists, such as Thales, Galileo, Feynman , and many others, gradually unpick the fabric of the Universe revealing an array of fundamental forces, intangible particles and indestructible energy.
