HRK is the best book for Physics students.
As the physics is the basic of sciences so clear your concepts by reading hrk.

Goodbye, Resnick, Halliday, and Krane. I'm marking you as read and then getting rid of you. Pretty sure the U of Washington used to use this for part of their freshman physics courses.
Of all the boring ways to talk about physics. Geez.

Physics, by Halliday and Resnick is a great introduction to physics with basic calculus. The theory is very good, always with illuminating examples. However, I think its exercises are, in general, weak and I also missed a more rigorous math in some parts of the book.

The worst book I ever used. Reading this was just a waste of time. I have not finished this yet and don't want to finish it.
