Teach Yourself Understand Physics
By Jim Breithaupt

This book is about physics how it was before the scientific age and inventions or experiments that changed the meaning of science. It gives lots of information and shows what it can be like for the future and how physics can improve. It gives a good understanding of what physics is. There are lots of discoveries and famous people such as Galileo who changed science as we know it.

I recommend this book to people who want to know lots about physics and the history before or of physics. Mainly I read this book because for my science we do physics and I want to get a really good understanding about the subject so that I am with the topic we are doing. There are notes in this book and different questions that it answers if you have any so I rate this book a four.
