Customer comments on this Youngstown Ohio Book
 Schaum's Solve Problems
The information in this problem book are many and some pertain to all physics have similar concepts in the way Alvin Halpen,PH.D has structure this book. Yet, for the newcomer in Physics will not easily understand. This book for resource and problems is fair!But not recommended!
 A terrific learning aid!
This book has exactly what it says in the title. The problems are well-chosen, and the detailed solutions are written in a way that really aids learning. (The "canned" solutions for many textbooks are full of references to obscure equations that are worked out in the chapter, and so promote a "flip through the pages hunting for the right equation" method of problem solving, which does not lead to strong problem solving competency. In contrast, the solutions in this book start from fundamental equations, the approach used by most good teachers, at least at the college and university level, and they are very well-written.)
There are no explicit review sections, so that this is a supplement to a regular text, rather than a replacement for it. (Review of some particularly difficult concepts _is_ covered via the mechanism of essay-style questions.)
Of course, to get the benefit of this text, you must try to work the problems on your own, before looking at the solutions. This is the best textbook supplement I've yet seen -- buy it, work as many of the problems as you possibly can, and it will _really_ help!

EXCELLENT
I bought this book back when I was in high school to help study for physics. I'm now in first year engineering and I still find it useful. This book is excellent because it has so many problems of every type which I found very useful while studying. I would strongly recommend this book.
