Absolutley Excellent Text.

I am not sure about the problems that some of the other users have come in contact with, but I found this text extremely useful. I used the text 3 or 4 years ago, and I still refer to it often.

Don't forget, the book isn't going to do all of the work...

The BEST Introductory Physics Book EVER

To be honest, I didn't even need to buy this book, but I did it anyway. Having worked with Serway's Texts before, I new this was going to be an exellent book. This text contains hundreds of illustrations to help a student of physics grasp the underlying concepts. The book also has many diversified problems to help the student obtain the tools needed to be successful in physics. I would recommend this book to anybody, even...

What is the problem?

This is a great introductory physics text. Many have complained about lack of examples and explanation with respect to the end of the chapter exercises. However, they are not the truth. I worked most of the exercises, and almost all of them were explained in the text. The catch is that this text is meant for physics or engineering majors. Therefore, in order to find some of the answers you have to THINK and solve the problems...

it's really really helpful

Most of us engineering students started physics in high school, which is algebra based. Then we go onto college and the physics classes there use calculus. Now unless you are a math and physics super student, then you should probably buy this book. To me, it seems to just give enough calculus. Some other books - the one used in my school for example, gives too much calculus and confuse the heck out of me. But this book...
