| | 2. |  | Optics (4th Edition)
from Addison Wesley
Price: $105.12
Customer Review:
I recommend this as the first optics book you ever read. Emphasis on conceptual understanding, carried by excellent and profuse illustrations and description, allow the reader a deeper understanding of what's going on; mathematical descriptions stay shallow.

| | 3. |  | Physics: Algebra/Trig (with CD-ROM)
from Brooks Cole
Price: $201.95
Customer Review:
I'm really mad at our school for having this as our textbook.
This book talks too much about the history of physics than to focus on concepts and how to solve problems. It doesn't tell you what kind of equations you should use for what type of problems. Some answers on the back of the book are... more info

| | 4. |  | Schaum's Outline of Optics
from McGraw-Hill
Price: $17.05
Customer Review:
This schaum's outline is too old for this topic (same thing for Optics by Eugene Hecht ISBN: 0805385665). It is time for someone to write a new one even if physics has not changed! (I guess what you pay is what you get!)
Pro: good summary for something you know
con: not much detail like... more info

| | 5. |  | Schaum's Outline of College Physics
from McGraw-Hill
Customer Review:
I attend an ivy league school, and the physics textbook for physics I and II is incredibly difficult. Last semester I spent almost a thousand dollars on a tutor to get me through physics I because the 150+ person lectures didn't help, and the textbook only made me "dumber". For physics II this... more info

| | 6. |  | Physics: Calculus (with CD-ROM)
from Brooks Cole
Customer Review:
I used this book to teach general physics II last semester. This book is compared nothing with Serway, Tipler, Halliday. The problems are too below the level of general physics and poor multimedia, the chapters and sections are completely unorganized.
I do not recommend this book for any thing

| | 7. |  | Schaum's Easy Outline: College Physics
from McGraw-Hill
Price: $9.95
Customer Review:
I don't own this book, but I browsed through it, and believe me that did not take long. This book is an embarrassment to the fine Schaum's Outline series. For one thing, the words "Easy Outline" and "College Physics" don't belong in the same book title. There are only six chapters in this book, and... more info

Customer Review:
I am a college student currently enrolled in physics. I also took physics in high school. I have looked at and read several physics books. This is BY FAR the BEST physics text I have come across.
