Summary:
This book is intended as a complement to either a calculus-based or non-calculus based introductory university physics course. Calculus concepts are used in this guide to explain theory, but calculus is rarely used in problems. This book helps you prepare for physics exams by focusing on problem-solving. Learn to solve physics problems naturally and systematically - and in a way that will stick with you. Not only will it help you with your homework, it will give you a clear idea of what you can expect to encounter on exams.
