Six Ideas That Shaped Physics (2002)

This texbook is designed to support an introductory calculus-based course in physics. This book looks at physics from a thoroughly contemporary perspective, and supports an active-learning approach to the classroom experience.

A General Relativity Workbook (2009)

This texbook is designed for a one-semester course in general relativity for upper-level undergraduate physics majors. Its design helps students master the math and "own" the material by goading (and helping) them work through the derivations.
