1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly Written, October 31, 2001
By Robert Zaballa (Atlanta, GA USA; Georgia State University) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is perhaps the worst introductory physics book I have encountered as a student. Many of the problems are poorly worded and the text does not contain sufficient information to perform many of the calculations. I would suggest learning from Schaum's Outline Series and low cost books (Dover publications) instead of this mockery.
