Physics for Scientists and Engineers

If you want to learn physics, this is the text you should use.
The explanation of all of the concepts in this book is presented very well. Chapters are opened with some example of how the concepts in the chapter are applied in other fields of science and engineering. Then, the book proceeds to explain the concepts. The writing is concise and specific, but also very informative and interesting. Reading the text is natural, and doesn't feel like a herculean effort.
Examples in the book are worked out thoroughly and neatly, so they are easy to comprehend, as well as being illustrated with function and well above average images. In addition, the book includes sections that, while not immediately necessary to the understanding of physics, provide more detailed explanations of application or more advanced concepts, for those who are interested. The thing is, they aren't necessary to the continuity of the book.
Each chapter is ended with a page of important formulae, and a set of exercises. The exercises are particularly well organised into three categories according to difficulty, which provides new students to practice their basic understanding, intermediate students to test their understanding, and advanced students with more of a challenge.
I highly recommend this text to anyone learning physics, regardless of what primary text you use. It is a valuable resource, and will aid you greatly.
The Sixth Edition of "Physics for Scientists and Engineers "offers a completely integrated text and media solution that will help students learn most effectively and will enable professors to customize their classrooms so that they teach most efficiently. The text includes a new strategic problem-solving approach, an integrated Math Tutorial, and new tools to improve conceptual understanding. To simplify the review and use of the text, "Physics for Scientists and Engineers "is available in these versions: Volume 1 "Mechanics/Oscillations and Waves/Thermodynamics "(Chapters 1-20, R) 1-4292-0132-0Volume 2 "Electricity and Magnetism/Light "(Chapters 21-33) 1-4292-0133-9Volume 3 "Elementary Modern Physics "(Chapters 34-41) 1-4292-0134-7Standard Version (Chapters 1-33, R) 1-4292-0124-XExtended Version (Chapters 1-41, R)
