It is a great textbook with in-depth example-problem solutions and opportunities to practice the knowledge learned. The pictures are all appropriate to the subject discussed and examples given are inclusive. The textbook is not culturally insensitive or offensive in any way. It reads clear and no speelling errors were observed. The equations are easy to read and follow. Navigation is smooth and images are clear. Having three volumes means second volume will be covered in both semesters. Typically, introductory physics is separated into two semesters at universities. I am a little confused as to why there are three University Physics volumes. Separation of gravitation chapter into a single chapter is a little strange since we use gravity in many examples in previous chapters such as Potential Energy and Applications of Newton's Laws. The order some of the chapters are presented is a little confusing such as the separation of some of the chapters into two parts for the essentially the same subject matter. The topics in the text are presented in a bit different order than usual. The sections would appear to take about 20 min or less to read. Usually, a student attention span is about 20 minutes. The text is readable and have enough subheadings to allow smaller reading sections. The terminology is appropriately used throughout the book. The text is internally consistent in terms of terminology and framework. It is easy to distinguish vectors from scalars. I like how the vectors are both shown as vector on top of the letters and also bolt. Even though everything is correct mathematically, physical meaning of dot and cross products were not explained. However, the context can be better if there were more physical explanations of some of the terms used like dot product and cross product. The text provides good amount of clarity in terminology. Basic physics does not change a whole a lot, but applications of it constantly evolving.

No bias is detected.Ĭontent is up to date and necessary updates can be made easily. The content is accurate and error-free as far as I can see. Incorporating more animations may help understand the subject.

Index and glossary are nicely listed referring to the section numberin alphabetical order at the end of the text. There are much better examples that can be given for significance. It does not do a good job in significance section in my opinion. It also lists strategy, solution, check your understanding and significance sections. The text covers all areas and ideas of the subject in deepth with examples. Reviewed by Serif Uran, Professor, Pittsburg State University on 5/4/22 Journalism, Media Studies & Communications +.
