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.
