An Illustrated Viking Voyage: Retracing Leif Erikssons Journey In An Authentic Viking Knarr

This is a good book, especially if you're mechanics course used parts 1 and 2 of this same series. The thing that I like about this book is that it doesn't depend on a complete knowledge of surface or line integrals, just a basic understanding of them and how to apply simple geometric cases for math simplicity. I haven't had to look elsewhere for any supplemental material on this subject with this book, and I feel confident... Read Full Review

I was in ap Physics C and I used Serway's book. That book was alright, and i got used to it. I also studied with Giancoli, Princeton Review, and Conceptual Physics. And about 3 weeks before the ap test, my teacher let me borrow his new Halliday book. This book really cleared up several concepts in mechanics. I went over a chapter every 2-3 days as my review. I don't know how the e/m section of the book is but I will be using... Read Full Review

I am a graduate student in physics and I have been a teaching assistant for 3 years now at Iowa State Univesity and SUNY Stony Brook. I have taught introductory physics numerous times and I have teaching experience with this book: IT IS GREAT. It is everything that the students ever dreamed of. Every chapter has really easy to follow explanation of the fundamental theory and numerous step-by-step solved problems and examples... Read Full Review

I used this book for my general physics course in USA. Since my native language is not English, I had to spend a lot of time to read through this book. But, compared to other textbooks, this book makes it easy to read even for a student like me who has language problem. The reason is that this book explains the concepts in clear manner and gives us further understanding by the immediate sample problems. I found this... Read Full Review

This book covers all of basic physics very well. The prose is clear and the problem sets incredibly thorough. Problems vary from being a simple extension to what is described in the chapter to some extremely challenging problems that require some original thinking. Not an easy read at all points but completely worth it
