Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Designed for undergraduate courses in science and engineering, this text emphasizes the conceptual unity of physics while providing a solid approach to helping students to solve problems. Skills are developed through end-of-chapter problems and a number of pedagogical aids, including tips boxes, in-chapter exercises, references within examples to related problems found at the ends of chapters, strategy boxes, extended summaries, paired problems to strengthen problem-solving skills, and cumulative problems to integrate concepts across several chapters. Photographs and line illustrations are included to assist students in visualizing concepts. This text also has a bookmark listing important formulae and an index to the padagogical use of colour found throughout the book.
Includes index.
Part 1: Mechanics -- Part 2: Oscillations, waves and fluids -- Part 3: Thermodynamics -- Part 4: Electromagnetism -- Part 5: Optics -- Part 6: Modern physics.
