MELVILLE, N.Y., Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- AIP Publishing, a leading not-for-profit scholarly publisher in the physical sciences, is delighted to launch its first digital book collection.

The first new titles include Real and Complex Numbers for Physicists by Nicolas A. Pereyra, F=ma Contests by Branislav Kisačanin and Eric K.

Also available is a growing Archive collection of historical texts, digitally remastered to provide modern options for readers and available online for the first time. The first books to join the Archive are through a partnership with the American Association of Physics Teachers.
