Open the door to the fascinating world of physics! The most fundamental of all natural sciences, physics will reveal to you the basic principles of the Universe. And while physics can seem challenging, its true beauty lies in the sheer simplicity of fundamental physical theories--theories and concepts that can enrich your view of the world around you. COLLEGE PHYSICS gives you a clear and logical presentation of the basic concepts, and with its integrated media resources, you have the maximum opportunity for success! Each new text includes access to PHYSICSNOW, the ultimate web-based homework and tutorial system! This interactive learning system tailors itself to your needs in the course. It's like having a personal tutor available whenever you need it! Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Confession, I haven't read all the book. I've only dipped into it in a few places ....like general relativity. Well, what can you expect with just two pages devoted to general relativity? But, I must confess to being surprised. I think the authors have done an incredible job in the two pages of distilling much of the essence of general relativity. And one thing that I've never seen before in a book of this nature is the section 1.9....setting out a general problem solving strategy for physics. Really very useful...and I don't think I was ever given such a strategy when I did physics at high school and university.
The structure of the book is interesting;
1. Mechanics
2. Thermodynamics
3. Vibrations and waves.
4. Electricity and magnetism
5. Light and optics
6. Modern physics...relativity, quantum physics, atomic physics, nuclear physics, elementary particles.
I thought that they might have started with the modern physics but it all hangs together in a reasonably logical sequence. (Though one might argue that studying light and electricity before studying the photon and the electron is a bit back-to front).
My version is second-hand and the section on mechanics is thoroughly worked over in the previous owner's own hand. I always find it extraordinary that notations like this are always most intense at the start of the book and inevitably drop off later in the book. I guess our good intentions have their limits!.
I had a look at the section on nuclear physics and found it a bit limited. One gets much better and more thorough expositions in Chemistry books...but I suppose one might expect this.
Overall, quite impressed and I'll probably be dipping into it fro time to time...liked the detailed worked sample questions. Four stars from me. ( )
