The goal of this book is to provide an extension of the previous book Intro-duction to Modern Physics: Theoretical Foundations, refered to as Vol. I. That volume develops the underlying concepts in twentieth-century physics: quantum mechanics, special relativity, and general relativity.
In the extended version of this textbook, Physics for Scientists and Engineers with Modern Physics, we cover the basic concepts of quantum mechanics and their application to atomic and molecular physics, and we introduce solid-state physics, nuclear physics, particle physics, and cosmology.
