Book Overview
The publication of the first edition of Physics in 1960 launched the modern era of physics textbooks. It was a new paradigm then and, after 40 years, it continues to be the dominant model for all texts. The big change in the market has been a shift to a lower level, more accessible version of the model. Fundamentals of Physics is a good example of this shift. In spite of this change, there continues to be a demand for the original version and, indeed, we are seeing a renewed interest in Physics as demographic changes have led to greater numbers of well-prepared students entering university. Physics is the only book available for academics looking to teach a more demanding course. This description may be from another edition of this product.

Rated 5 starsrigorous but complete
By Thriftbooks.com User,
I used this book to study for the AP Physics C exam and it was quite a daunting task. I supplemented my reading with a Princeton Review study guide for physics B and C though, and I found it was the perfect combination: the Halliday/Resnick text gave me the details, and the Princeton Review put it in English for me. I feel prepared for the exam, either way.
