Practical Physics demonstrates the purposive and critical approach
that should be made to all experimental work in physics. It does not
describe a systematic course of experiments, but is intended as a
companion to any undergraduate course of practical work. The text is
in three parts. The first deals with the statistical treatment of
data, the second with experimental methods, and the third with such
essential matters as keeping efficient records, accuracy in
calculations, and scientific writing. The text is liberally
illustrated with examples and exercises, with solutions to the latter.
The new edition includes a treatment of the χ2 distribution, a
section on atomic clocks, worked examples based on spreadsheets, and
additional exercises. Existing examples and references have been
brought up to date. Although intended for undergraduates, Practical
Physics has proved of interest to school-students, teachers, and
researchers, not only in physics, but also in other branches of
science.
