Presents a complete, accurate and rigorous study of physics while bringing it forward into the '90s and beyond. The Fourth Edition of volumes 1 and 2 is concerned with mechanics and E&M/Optics. New features include: expanded coverage of classic physics topics, substantial increases in the number of in-text examples which reinforce text exposition, the latest pedagogical and technical advances in the field, numerical analysis, computer-generated graphics, computer projects and much more.
Goodbye, Resnick, Halliday, and Krane. I'm marking you as read and then getting rid of you. Pretty sure the U of Washington used to use this for part of their freshman physics courses.
Of all the boring ways to talk about physics. Geez.
Physics, by Halliday and Resnick is a great introduction to physics with basic calculus. The theory is very good, always with illuminating examples. However, I think its exercises are, in general, weak and I also missed a more rigorous math in some parts of the book.
