What right does he have to even comment on this book? I took this class from the author (Randy Harris), and this is perhaps the best physics books I have read. He directly speaks to the reader which creates a comfort zone. The material gets tough as you progress through the book. Harris does his best to keep things clear, but Quantum Physics is supposed to be confusing (this is where the beauty lies). The examples are helpful in reienforcing the main concepts. It is true that some of the problems in the back are extremely challenging and no hints are given. But, does your boss at work give you hints for your tasks? Harris really wants you to understand and then solve problems, not just plug and chug. So, get this book for self-studying. It will teach you more than what the majority of professors can. Harris has been a lecturer for over 25 years now, and you can definitely benefit from his interesting way of teaching. I will leave you with an inspiring quote from Randy Harris: "You gonna have to start accepting things you don't believe in" (referring to ideas in Modern Physics). Review: Clean, clear, concise - I have been studying from this book for the past few weeks. Dr. Harris presents the material in a clean and clear way that demonstrates all the nuances and subtleties of relativity and quantum mechanics. Not only that, but the material is concise. Mathematical details are thrown into the Appendices for those who are interested in the mathematics, but for everyone else, the main results and concepts are presented. The problems, as I have seen, are also reasonable in length and difficulty. This book is definitely worth your time and effort if you truly wish to gain a strong introduction to relativity and quantum mechanics. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #884,796 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #643 in Physics (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (68) | | Dimensions | 8.1 x 1.2 x 10.1 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 0805303081 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0805303087 | | Item Weight | 2.99 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 648 pages | | Publication date | July 26, 2007 | | Publisher | Pearson | ## Images ![Modern Physics - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JhIWOIroL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for self-studying *by M***W on May 30, 2012* The person who said " Stay away from this textbook at all costs" apparently never read the book and tried to do problems.

Easy to read and follow. My book in particular came with some wear and use, and some writing on the pages but it was in very good condition still. For the price to rent however, it could be lower... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/15430381-modern-physics](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/15430381-modern-physics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
