      A career in computer science is a commitment to a lifetime of learning. You will not be taught every detail you will need in your career while you are a student. The goal of a computer science education is to give you ...
    • Foundations of Quantum Mechanics 

      Norsen, Travis (Springer, 2017)
      This textbook is intended as a lifeline to physics students (of either the traditional or the autodidactic variety) who have had some preliminary exposure to quantum mechanics but who want to actually try to make physical ...
    • Fundamental Astronomy 

      Karttunen, Hannu; Kröger, Pekka; Oja, Heikki; Poutanen, Markku; Donner, Karl Johan (Springer, 2017)
      As the title suggests, this book is about fundamental things that one might expect to remain fairly the same. Yet astronomy has evolved enormously over the last few years, and only a few chapters of this book have been ...
    • Fundamentals of Biomechanics 

      Knudson, Duane (Springer, 2007)
      This second edition of Fundamentals of Biomechanics was developed primarily to update a well-received text. The uniqueness of integrating biological and mechanical bases in analyzing and improving human movement has been ...
    • Fundamentals of Biomechanics 

      O ¨ zkaya, Nihat; Goldsheyder, David; Nordin, Margareta (Springer, 2018)
      Biomechanics is an exciting and fascinating specialty with the goal of better understanding the musculoskeletal system to enable the development of methods to prevent problems or to improve treatment of patients. Biomechanics ...
