Fundamental Physics reasoning books

In summary, the conversation was about recommendations for books that provide a fundamental understanding of various topics, including physics, and explain concepts without relying heavily on math. Some suggestions were Feynmann's books, Space, Time, and Things by B. K. Ridley, and Concepts of Force by Max Jammer. The individual asking for recommendations also expressed interest in books on interactive forces.

Hey guys...I always tend to ask a lot questions...so I was wondering if you guys know of some books out there which is very fundamental and explains its reasoning on every step of its way as if it was made for kindergarten but covers advanced topics?

Fields I am interested in: everything...doesn't even have to physics!

Thx.

Any books on interactive forces?(remember I like books that focus on the concepts rather than math)

You could try Concepts of Force by Max Jammer, but I think you'll really like the Ridley book.
