horrible book:
This book just throws formulas and examples at you without explaining the "Principles of the physics" I was forced to purchase this book for a class but I learn most of the material from other peoples notes on the internet. Unless you have to I would not purchase this book.
Who shot Physics?:
This book makes a mockery of physics. It does not go into detail in any of its explanations. All I ever get from the book are very superficial comments on the equations the authors present. Too many pictures, not enough teaching through explanation. This book will leave you in a daze, asking questions.
very good:
the book was in the condition that was stated, if not better, and they even gave me the solutions manual on a cd which helps out tremendously!
utter garbage:
This book i felt was not that well written. As another guy said, if you have to use this for a college level physics class its not too great. If you like to dabble in physics and look at shiny pictures and feel smart then this is the book for you. Otherwise it is really difficult to understand and the problems are incredibly frustrating and difficult because there are a lot of little "tricks" that are not obvious at all, and that most teachers and T.A's wouldnt be able to figure out if there wasnt a solutions manual for it.... I'm not a bitter student either, I scored at the top of the curve in most of my physics classes at UCLA, in spite of this book. Thank goodness we have excellent physics professors here
Right Book, Great Timing:
It was the right book, they got it to me on time, and im happy.
