This engaging text uses the performance, recording, and enjoyment of music to present basic principles of physics. The narrative lays out specific results from physics, as well as some of the methodology, thought processes, and 'interconnectedness' of physics concepts, results, and ideas.

Bryan H. Suits has been a professor in the Department of Physics at Michigan Technological University (MTU) since 1985. An award-winning teacher, he has taught physics courses at all levels. An accomplished amateur musician with decades of experience, the author has combined his enthusiasm for physics with that for music to find ways to improve physics literacy among nonphysicists.
