These two volumes cover the classical topics typically taught in undergraduate physics courses and beyond. However, we teach classical physics using a very different language from traditional books, influenced by the language of modern physics, in a move to encourage a positive approach towards the latter subject. Based around the unifying concept of energy, we take a distinct approach to the organisation of material, presenting physics in a cohesive manner without separating topics such as mechanics, kinematics, thermodynamics, electricity, and magnetism. Instead, physics is revealed gradually, emphasising a holistic approach to science. Despite this peculiarity, we have maintained the conventional separation between Physics I and II to assist teachers in smoothly integrating these books into their courses.These innovative volumes present valuable new perspectives. Although their approach is bold, they will certainly prompt interesting reflections on traditional teachings. A significant portion of this second volume is committed to modern physics, including an introduction to the standard model of fundamental interactions. The old quantum mechanics is largely excluded in favour of quantum field theory, which we present in a manner accessible to undergraduate students.
