HistoryThis book uses intermediate to advanced algebra and some (very little) pre - calculus to explain physics. It's great how they break it down so much - they start with the "what is a linear function" lesson, and go over real and complex numbers and graphing in case you forgot. Don't let the thinkness fool you - the first 7 chapters are spent getting you up to speed with the math that they use for the rest of the text. The way...

I am a premedical student in TN and obviously you realize I take very many science courses. As with any course, proper review and study time is necessary to make a good grade (Unless you're really smart.) This book was extremely helpful, especially the review chapters. I would recommend this to book to anyone who needs a little extra help, or even needs just a little review before taking a college level physics class. Highly...

My two sons both used this book to help them understand their high school physics. It fills in some of the gaps that other books leave. The approach is unique, especially because the author lets the reader know that study is necessary in order to learn any subject. The text questions are helpful.

Good basic overview of basic physics concepts (and the math behind them). Practice problems are useful as well.

This book is unique because of its "Part Zero" section on mathematics. I already knew this stuff (I learned it in high school) but the author says "Take what you can use and skip the rest." The quizzes and tests are in-depth and cover the subject well. I like this book. It does not assume I am stupid and it does not talk down.
