Aimed at presenting the essentials of physics, chemistry, earth science, and astronomy in a clear, easy-to-understand way, The Physical Universe shows students how science works, how scientists approach problems, and why science constantly evolves in its search for understanding. The book concentrates on those aspects of the physical sciences most relevant to a nonscientist who wants to understand how the universe works and to know something about the connections between science and everyday life. The new edition continues the important theme of helping students become well-informed citizens.

The new edition of The Physical Universe is also available in McGraw Hill Connect, featuring SmartBook 2.0, STEM Prep Modules, Application-Based Activities, a Curated Question Bank, and more!
