Discovering the Natural Laws: The Experimental Basis of Physics

Summary: Physical experiments and verification of theories
Review: The book is in general about various constants of physics their values and how they arew measured. the ides is that nothing is proven unless it is verified with the experiment and precision of the experiment is a mojor factor in the reliability of the theories. Various constants of Nature such as gravity, speed of light, charge are all explained and major tests are explained with the problems encountered while doing the test. It is a narrative book, no calculations no formulas are given, you just get the concept of the test and underlyingm problems with them.
It is something that is worthy of reading.
