内容简介

　　The inspiration for this book was a course of lectures which I delivered between 1977 and 1980 to undergraduates about to enter their final year in Physics and Theoretical Physics at Cambridge. The aim of the course was to provide a survey of the nature of theoretical reasoning in physics, which would put them in a receptive frame of mind for the very intensive courses of lectures on all aspects of physics in the final year. The objectives of the course are described in the first chapter and concern issues about which I feel very strongly: students can go through an undergraduate course in physics without gaining an understanding of the insights, approaches and techniques which are the tools of the professional physicist, let alone an impression of the intellectual excitement and beauty o the subject. The course was intended as an alternative to the normal mode of presentation and was entitled Theoretical Concepts in Physics.

很好的理解才行，理论物理学通过为现实世界建立数学模型来试图理解所有物理现象的运行机制。通过“物理理论”来条理化、解释、预言物理现象。丰富的想像力、精湛的数学造诣、严谨的治学态度，这些都是成为理论物理学家需要培养的优良素质。例如，在十九世纪中期，物理大师詹姆斯·麦克斯韦觉得电磁学的理论杂乱无章、急需整合。尤其是其中许多理论都涉及超距作用（action at a distance）的概念。麦克斯韦对于这概念极为反对，他主张用场论来解释。例如，磁铁会在四周产生磁场，而磁场会施加磁场力于铁粉，使得这些铁粉依著磁场力的方向排列，形成一条条的磁场线；磁铁并不是直接施加力量于铁粉，而是经过磁场施加力量于铁粉

英文的，教材中的经典，啃起来可能不容易，但也要费劲去啃
