A reprint of the classic work by Richard Manliffe Sutton, this book is a must-have for anyone who does physics demonstrations. Illustrations and explanations of each demonstration are done in an easy-to-understand format. Each can be adapted to be used as a demonstration or as a hands-on experiment. Most are easily upgraded to modern equipment and uses. This is a great reference for teachers, professors and demonstrations/lab personnel.

This is a "cookbook" for teachers of physics, a book of recipes for the preparation of demonstration experiments to illustrate the principles that make the subject of physics so fascinating.




Editorial Reviews

The Physics Teacher
A 2003 Reprint initiated by PIRA and carried out by AAPT of the 1938 classic work that I hope sparks a trend in getting these texts into the hands of new teachers. — John L. Hubisz (Phys. Teach. 42, 256, April 2004)
