UBC, Phys 100 + 101 - Introductory Physics, Energy and Waves. Clear and concise explanations, well illustrated, useful examples. Very helpful books for studying introductory phys. Helped me to pass my courses with flying colours~

This is part of my personal library, which also includes Giancoli's Volume II (ISBN 0130215198) as well as Brandt's companion study guide (ISBN 0130214752). The college level texts are clearly written and the study guide helps with additional applications and more importantly, how the solutions are developed.
