An Academic Investment

I used this textbook for my first college level physics course. The electricity and magnetism section are simply the best. Later on, I found myself referring back to it when I took an undergrad electromagnetism course. Now, even as a graduate student--when I find myself drowning in an ocean of details, this textbook has helped me navigate with purpose and understanding. Simply put, this book is a true academic investment.

The perfect book for a general course

I've used both this book and Halliday's Extended 6th edition for my course on Physics. My conclusion, chapter after chapter, has been clear to me: this is the perfect book for a general course on Physics at university level. The language is simple to understand (Halliday too), the figures and tables are well done and useful (Halliday too), the content is thorough (Halliday: not so much !). Yes, this last is the striking thing: it's thorough and reaches a level of detail that is not a common feature for these kind of Physics books. The problems set is well balanced both in content and number (an average of 85-90 for each chapter), and as usual odd-numbered problems' solutions are provided.I've tried this book without anybody advising it to me, now I'm happy I've had it for the exam.

Excellent Text

I used this text as an undergraduate, and had the good fortune to be taught by the author Hugh Young.The material is well-written, encyclopedic, and well organized. The problem sets are thorough, challenging, and instructive.This is THE physics book to buy if one is starting to study the field.

A Great Book

Excellent!! I'm studying in Form 7 and going to take my Advanced Level Examinations this year. No other reference book avaliable in Hong Kong better than University Physics. The content are very well organized and the examples are extremely useful. I'm sure that you won't be disappointed after you buy this book.

Young and Freedman's Book teaches well.

This book is very well organized. I especially appreciated the "problem-solving strategy" snippets, which were very helpful. All the diagrams are very clear. The problems are written well; i.e., the reader can understand what the problem is asking. Lastly, there is so much physics in this book! There is enough physics for two full years.
