This book provides a chronological introduction to the science of motion and rest based on the reading and analysis of significant portions of Galileos Dialogues Concerning Two New Sciences, Pascals Treatise on the Equilibrium of Fluids and the Weight of the Mass of Air, Newtons Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, and Einsteins Relativity.Each chapter begins with a short introduction followed by a reading selection. Carefully crafted study questions draw out key points in the text and focus the readers attention on the authors methods, analysis, and conclusions. Numerical and laboratory exercises at the end of each chapter test the readers ability to understand and apply key concepts from the text.Space, Time and Motion is the second of four volumes in A Students Guide through the Great Physics Texts. This book grew out of a foursemester undergraduate physics curriculum designed to encourage a critical and circumspect approach to natural science, while at the same time preparing students for advanced coursework in physics.This book is particularly suitable as a collegelevel textbook for students of the natural sciences, history or philosophy. It also serves as a textbook for advanced highschool students, or as a thematicallyorganized sourcebook for scholars and motivated layreaders. In studying the classic scientific texts included herein, the reader will be drawn toward a lifetime of contemplation.
