Each of this book's 32 essays discusses a chosen topic, at a level
that is generally within that of a four-year degree course in
Physics. The essays supplement (indeed sometimes correct)
treatments usually given, or supplies reasoning that tends to fall
through the cracks. The author uses his life long experience of
tutorial teaching at Oxford to know what topics often need such
discussion, for clarification, or for avoidance of common
confusions. The book contains accounts of even-standard topics,
accounts that offer an unusual emphasis, or a fresh insight, or
more than customary rigour, or a cross-link to apparently unrelated
material. The student (and their teachers) who really wants to
understand physics will find this book indispensable. Often the
outcome of tutorial discussion has been an understanding that lies
a little to the side of what is presented in standard texts. Such
understanding is presented here in the essays. The topics covered
are diverse and have something useful to say across most areas of a
physics degree.
