SUMMARY

The best recommendation for a Modern Physics book suitable for sophomore students is "Modern Physics" by Kenneth Krane. This book is noted for its readability and comprehensive coverage of the subject, similar to Griffith's "Electrodynamics" and Halliday's "Fundamentals of Physics." It includes numerous examples and problems, making it an excellent choice for self-study without formal coursework. The author, Krane, is recognized for his alignment with the educational standards set by Resnick and Halliday.

Please recommend Modern Physics book which is good for a student. Not taking a course
about the subject. I don't agree with comments like get a book for each subject. I want to know Modern Physics at level of sophomore. Is there a book like Griffith's Electrodynamics or Halliday's Fundamentals of physics, which is popular and extremely readable and has a bunch of examples and problems?
I searched about this but I can't find strong recommendation.
