Classical physics encompasses the body of theory developed over the past few centuries that describes the behaviour of macroscopic systems. Rooted in Newton’s laws of motion and gravitation, the ...

It is a matter for celebration when two illustrious theoreticians such as Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford provide an in-depth description of the fundamentals of classical physics. Modern Classical ...
