Honestly, of all my textbooks this semester, this one was the most terrible. It is not well written, and if you want to look something up really fast, it's almost impossible.

For instance, to look up Pascal's Principle, you get sent to the page that supposedly has the definition, etc. Instead, you get a ton of unnecessary paragraphs full of text that just talks around the principle, and never any clear definition. Any clear definitions given in 'boxes' are so convoluted and annoying that it was always much easier to look things up online.

Thankfully my physics teacher was amazing this semester and I managed to ace the class without needing to use this book very often at all. Now then, can I have my 50 Euros back?
