His education continued in Vancouver, Canada, and at Columbia University, where he earned a Ph.D. in physics. He was a member of the Physics Department at Rutgers University for 46 years. His textbook Physics: The First Science, coauthored with Suzanne White Brahmia, was published by the Rutgers University Press in 2011. He was awarded the Warren I. Susman prize for excellence in teaching by Rutgers, and the Robert A. Millikan medal by the American Association of Physics Teachers. His research career parallels his activities in education and with high school teachers in the United States and in India. A focus of his work is to make physics less remote and its teaching more widely accessible and less abstract. Peter lives in Princeton where he is active in the Princeton Community Democratic Organization which he cofounded in 1967.visualizza meno
