"University Physics with Modern Physics, " Technology Update, Thirteenth Edition continues to set the benchmark for clarity and rigor combined with effective teaching and research-based innovation. The Thirteenth Edition Technology Update contains QR codes throughout the textbook, enabling you to use your smartphone or tablet to instantly watch interactive videos about relevant demonstrations or problem-solving strategies. "University Physics" is known for its uniquely broad, deep, and thoughtful set of worked exampleskey tools for developing both physical understanding and problem-solving skills. The Thirteenth Edition revises all the Examples and Problem-solving Strategies to be more concise and direct while maintaining the Twelfth Edition's consistent, structured approach and strong focus on modeling as well as math. To help you tackle challenging as well as routine problems, the Thirteenth Edition adds Bridging Problems to each chapter, which pose a difficult, multiconcept problem and provide a skeleton solution guide in the form of questions and hints. The text's rich problem setsdeveloped and refined over six decadesare upgraded to include larger numbers of problems that are biomedically oriented or require calculus. The problem-set revision is driven by detailed student-performance data gathered nationally through MasteringPhysics(r), making it possible to fine-tune the reliability, effectiveness, and difficulty of individual problems. Complementing the clear and accessible text, the figures use a simple graphic style that focuses on the physics. They also incorporate explanatory annotationsa technique demonstrated to enhance learning.

I've used this book when I took a course on electromagnetism (at University of Oslo) and I'm really satisfied with it. It's a pleasure to read about electromagnetisn with this book because it explain things in a way that makes you understand it rather fast. Woho.

The two things that could have been better is that Maxwell's equations on differential form and some numerical methods in EM should have been discussed.
