The present essential contains a number of tips for the successful completion of physics studies. What makes it special is the inspiring style of the author, who studied physics himself and knows what he is talking about. Whether it's keeping lecture notes, working on exercise problems or effectively preparing for exams - this book motivates physics students even in difficult phases of their studies and encourages potential first-year students to dare to study natural sciences.

This Springer essential is a translation of the original German 1st edition essentials, Wie man effektiv und nachhaltig Physik studiert by Dimitrij Tschodu, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2018. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
