DESCRIPTION:
"Great book!" according to Dianna. I am taking graduate level physics classes and I carry this book to class with me. When introduced to a new topic in class, I read this first and then proceed to build on it. It does a great job in building the foundation and putting complicated terms into everyday situations. The math is not complicated, simple trigonometry and algebra. Easy read. Perfect for beginners.. Joe said Helps a Little, don't expect a Miracle. While the concepts are explained a lot better, they go no where near as in depth as most textbooks, and really only touch the surface of a lot of things. Don't expect this thing to replace your textbook anytime soon.. Mike Sullivan said physics II for dummies. This is a good book and a solid introduction. No complaints on content. I have two engineering degrees from physics II for dummies This is a good book and a solid introduction. No complaints on content. I have two engineering degrees from 30 yrs ago, and my son is now taking this stuff, hence my renewed interest so I have help him with homework. I gave the book 3 stars because I got the Kindle editio. The only issue is that the formulas are microscopic in size in the Kindle version. A major defect in my opinoin. You can't see them without tapping on them to open a window to enlarge them, and even then, sometimes they are still too small to rea. 0 yrs ago, and my son is now taking this stuff, hence my renewed interest so I have help him with homework.

"There is very little else to say - this book does exactly what it says on the cover. The text is well presented with informative illustrations, examples and guiding points for the reader. The information was informative and understandable for the reviewer who has not encountered these topics in this depth for several years." (Reviews, December 2010)
