This is an introductory course in special relativity and quantum theory which incorporates historical material. Nearly every section contains at least one illustrative example (with calculations), and each chapter has a wide selection of problems. Topics covered include relativistic dynamics, quantum mechanics, parity, quantum statistical physics, the nuclear shell model, fission, fusion, color and the strong interaction, gauge symmetries, and grand unification.
