So standardized that its uniform use may be a detriment to creative thinking.

obviamente, no terminé de leerlo (hasta el capítulo 20 es mi clase de física) pero estoy terminada de leerlo. gracias, gracias.

This is a great reference for basic information on pretty much every physics topic. The frequent use of illustrations and non-rigorous language means this text can be used in high school, but I still refer to it occasionally in grad school.

Meh, il libro di testo del corso di Physics 1 al PoliTo. Inutile sotto ogni punto di vista dato che non rispecchia la difficoltà di un tema d'esame medio e la spiegazione è eccessivamente prolissa ed annacquata in inutili spiegazioni sul niente.

I still reference this thing with dorky frequency. This is a book not to be sold back to the college bookstore.

Good but not great

Great to find formulas as they just give it to you but not so great in explaining. Take notes in class.
