New Features
? The author, Edward Purcell, is a Nobel prize winner who discovered, among many other things, nuclear magnetic resonance.
? Problems are extremely good ranging from very easy to interesting.
? Taking a historical approach, except for the early use of relativity, the author has tried to develop the results from a full understanding of the physical situation by using very clever intuitive models.
