College Physics: A Strategic Approach (2nd Edition) (Pre-Release Version for use at Colorado State University)

great buy for what its worth!Comes with: Volumes 1 + 2 of College Physics textbook, Student workbooks for volumes 1 + 2, and mastering physics access code!I can't wait to use this book for the next year! This definitely is the best option if you are required to get this textbook.

Well written textbook

Got here quickly. Condition of the book was very nice. Inside, it looks like of like a science book at first with all the work at the very end of each chapter, divided into sections.

The shipping was quick and the product was in great shape. It came with the two workbooks as well. I highly recommend purchasing this for school. (because it does come with the workbooks and it's cheaper than places like Barnes & Noble)

Great physics book for a student interested in health sciences. Provides helpful example problems and useful practice problems and relates physics to real life applications, which is nice to see.

I bought this book for my phys I class and although my teacher sucked balls this book was extremely helpful and unlike most text books it explains the topics fairly well giving relevant examples. plus the price was great for a new edition of the book. I recommend it.

I needed the book for my course and it arrived right on time. I was worried that I would not get it on time but all was well.

This book is quite difficult to read and follow. The paragraphs and pages are extremely messy and distracting. For example, as you are reading along it is very common to find something such as, "Figure 1.3," written in blue or "Equation 15.13." It frequently inserts math equations into the sentence without defining all of terms. Additionally, charts, graphs, example problems, and photos are strewed across every page and quickly become distracting as you attempt to read the chapter. I fully understand that this is a college-level text and that some previous knowledge of physics is expected, however, I find it to be of little help with the course. If you're required to use this text, I have two suggestions: buy another book to assist you or frequent "Khan Academy."

Very gently used (if even). The price was high for a second edition though. Besides that, no complaints.
