Об изучении основных принципов физики в средней школе

On the study of the basic principles of physics in high school: A guide for teachers.

Author: Volkovysky Romuald Yurievich

The book contains an interesting and deep methodological analysis of the main issues of the development of physical science from the standpoint of their reflection in the teaching process (the relationship between logical and historical, experimental and theoretical, as well as between phenomenological and substantial theories). Throughout the book, the question of the essence of explanation in science and in teaching is traced.

The book is written in a living language on the material of a school physics course.
