There has been increasing interest in including a significant treatment of modern physics in the introductory physics course. In response to this trend the authors have prepared an extended version of Physics, Part II. They have modified the last two chapters, Light and Quantum Physics, and the Wave Nature of Matter, and added five new ones, namely, The Structure of Atoms; Atomic Physics: Three Selected Topics; Electrical Conduction in Solids; Nuclear Physics - An Introduction; and Energy from the Nucleus. These seven chapters have been bound separately here for users of Physics, Part II who are currently mid-course so that students owning the regular version need not purchase the entire extended version as well. Users of the text, Fundamentals of Physics, Extended Version, will recognize the similarity in modern topics. As in the recent revised printing of that book, however, the authors have made a significant expansion in the problem sets to provide a better and more uniform coverage of the material and to tie them more closely to the text. They have also increased the number of worked examples, making the sets more interesting overall and improving their pedagogic impact. It is hoped that this extended version will permit greater flexibility than heretofore in constructing the introductory physics course and add to the students' interest in the subject.
