Customer Reviews

geared to advanced physics students

This book is called General Physics, but it is by no means meant for an introductory physics course. A solid background in math (especially calculus) is a definite requirement. This is the text that was used for my undergrad honours physics classes. Definitely not meant for intro physics geared to non-physics majors.The material is well covered, although a little on the dry side at times. Plenty of examples and questions to challenge. The questions at the end of each chapter range from easy to difficult, and are intended to make the student think and probe more deeply into the concepts covered. Generally they're not questions that can be answered simply by referring back to the chapter or mimicking the examples. You need to know and understand the material to answer the questions right, especially for the more difficult questions marked by an asterisk.

I am in India(Union Territory of pondicherry,Pondy-605001). Now I am running 26. This book,which made me to go through it as a daily routine, when I was just16, is lucid, advanced merging all disciplines like mathematics,day-to-day activities. I am badly in need of this book, because i could not find it now. I am now a High school teacher. I feel myself and my students should read this.
