This thoroughly updated edition serves as an essential introduction to biological physics for health and life science students. It provides a solid foundation in physics, structured into six sections: Mechanics, Solids and Fluids, Thermodynamics, Electricity and DC Circuits, Optics, and Radiation and Health. The text is rich with illustrative examples, diagrams, and challenges specifically tailored to the biomedical sciences. Key resources include interspersed problems, learning objectives, and explanations of crucial concepts and equations, along with additional practice problems. New chapters cover Optical Instruments, Advanced Geometric Optics, Thermodynamic Processes, Heat Engines and Entropy, and Thermodynamic Potentials. This comprehensive resource is ideal for health and life science majors with limited backgrounds in mathematics or physics, and it also serves as a valuable reference for those seeking a broad understanding of the subject. Topics include Kinematics, Newton's Laws, Energy, Waves, Sound, Elasticity, Fluid Dynamics, Temperature, Ideal Gases, Thermodynamics, Static Electricity, Electric Force, Capacitance, DC Circuits, Vision, Atomic Physics, Nuclear Physics, Ionising Radiation, Medical Imaging, and Magnetism. Instructors can access support materials through the companion website.
