Great solutions manual. Provides step by step solutions to challlenging problems. I couldn't have gotten through Physics without it.

This "solutions" manual includes only selected odd answers. Pretty lame when you're expecting a solution to all the problems. Not worth the money. You're better off buying the Portable TA by Andrew Elby.

The Tipler text that this accompanies is horrible, and is why this is a necessity. I learn more about physics from attempting the book's problem, and ending up in here than any other way.

Ehh, yeah, it only has select problems from each chapter. I suppose the argument could be made that if it had all the odd problems then students could just use that for their answers. Well, I kind of feel that is the students prerogative to be lazy and not really learn the material. The test will come back to haunt them, or they will be seen as incompetent by future employers. As for me, I'm not innately smart so like a zillion problems. I do them honestly, and I would like to ensure I did them right for my own understanding. So I'm a bit disappointed.

It's missing a lot of problems. Not even all the odd number problems are covered in this solution book. I'll save you all money. Here's what you do:

1. Go to. cramster.com
2. sign up
3. go to textbook category.
4. The online solution book is listed there.

It's free to sign up and the solutions cover ALL the odd number problems. Don't waste your money on this solution book.
