“The Theoretical Minimum” is a book for those who skipped physics lessons at school and college, but already regret it. Do you want to understand the basics of natural science and learn to think and reason the way modern physicists do? In an original and unconventional form, renowned American scientists Leonard Susskind and George Grabowski offer an introductory course in mathematics and physics for inquisitive minds. Unlike other popular science books that try to explain the laws of physics in an accessible way, cleverly evading equations and formulas, the authors teach the reader the classical foundations of natural science. The book offers its own original teaching methodology, supplemented by video lectures published on the website theoreticalminimum.com.

The book is included in the Dynasty Foundation Library. The Dynasty Foundation for non-profit programs was founded in 2001 by Dmitry Borisovich Zimin, honorary president of the company Vimpelcom. The Foundation's priority areas of activity are support for fundamental science and education in Russia, popularization of science and education. “The Library of the Dynasty Foundation” is a project of the Foundation for the publication of modern popular science books selected by expert scientists. The book you are holding in your hands was published under the auspices of this project. More detailed information about the Dynasty Foundation can be found at www.dynastyfdn .com
