    Angela Collier…I also have my fair share of physics classes under my belt due to my engineering degree and she makes me think of things in a way that none of my professors did.

    She’s brilliant.

      The “magnetic forces do no work” thing is maddening.

      The guy who is ‘the guy’ for that level of physics textbooks just happens to be determined to prove a non-quantum mechanics based explanation of magnetism so the book is written from that perspective without actually saying it. Of course.
