The 1965 edition, now supposed to be freely available due to a condition of the federal grant, was originally published as a volume of the Berkeley Physics Course (see below for more on the legal status). The third edition, released in 2013, was written by David J. Morin for Cambridge University Press and included the adoption of SI units.
He then returned to Princeton, obtaining a doctorate in physics in 1966 with Arthur Wightman. His whole career has been spent teaching mathematical physics and pursuing research at Harvard University. Jaffe was appointed as Professor of Physics in 1970, and had his title changed to Professor of Mathematical Physics in 1974.

The first edition of the book to bear the title Fundamentals of Physics, first published in 1970, was revised from the original text by Farrell Edwards and John J. Merrill. [2] (Editions for sale outside the USA have the title Principles of Physics.) Walker has been the revising author since 1990. [3]
The book was reviewed by John R. Taylor, [2] among others. [3] [4] It has also been recommended in other, more advanced, textbooks on the subject.[5] [6]According to physicists Yoni Kahn of Princeton University and Adam Anderson of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Griffiths' Introduction to Quantum Mechanics covers all materials needed for questions on quantum mechanics and atomic ...
