An introduction to the key concepts of modern physics including relativity theory and quantum mechanics.

Basic Concepts of Modern Physics is a fascinating introduction to twentieth-century physics.

In this insightful text, Dr Georg Unger provides clear descriptions of the conceptual bases of physics, including quantum mechanics, particles and relativity theory, as well as other aspects relating to key physical concepts to phenomena.

This new edition of a classic text, originally published in German in 1967, offers an enlightening picture of modern physics that is open to spiritual understanding.

Georg Unger (1909-1999) was born in Stuttgart, Germany and was a student at the first Waldorf school when it opened in 1919. He did his doctorate in Zurich, Switzerland with extensive studies in mathematics, physics and philosophy. In 1955, he became a visiting fellow at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for studies in cybernetics with Norbert Wiener. As a visiting guest at the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton University, he met J. Robert Oppenheimer and, later, John von Neumann in Washington, for scientific philosophical discussions. Dr Unger later became the head of the Department of Mathematics and Astronomy at the Goetheanum in Dornach, Switzerland.
