1By trashcanrieoriI can’t download the bookHelp
1By Andyboy858585Having a problem downloading my physics book.Wonderful book!
5By Song of kidsI have been looking for a book for my MCAT that I found this book. Honestly it is great!Not good and that is why
1By Jaxean- the paper edition got more images - over 80% of the problems (the really challenging ones) are without solutions - the way it presents informations leaves a lot, and i mean a lot to be desired - it does not take advantage of the possibility of digital interactive activity, so why bother with the (made for i book) thing! Don't buy this, trust me, or at least try it first.Great Book for Students
5By AIT1818I bought this book thinking it would reinforce my understanding of Physics from class. This book is doing more than “reinforcing my understanding”. I’m learning things that I would have never learned in Physics class in school. Overall, great book. I highly recommend it for any student in Physics that may be struggling with understanding.needs strp by step examples
3By dannyb181i am currently taking physics next year and i find this book more comprehensive than actually teaching you the math. i wish this book has examples that taught you the math and syuff like that but overall good for conceptsGreat step to wonders of universe
5By Sam's TipsAn all new way of feeding information. These digital books are far better than traditional books. There are inaccurate information in this book, which is unacceptable in factual and theory books. Publisher must correct content.Great..
5By heinzineI want more lessons please update…!Too many errors
1By riticca 1103It was ok...it just needed to be revised. I found some facts wrong and it had grammar errors. I personally found myself uninterested in reading this book in the middle of the book.Slightly misleading...
4By Chemosynthetic wombatOverall, the textbook is great. There are many real-world connections, which are nice, and lots of information. However, a slight problem arose in the form of the practice quizzes at the end of each section of the book. It was a good idea, but some of the answers are incorrect. It took me a while to figure out, but when it said that 'a person's little finger is about one meter in length', I figured it out. Apple ought to correct this boo-boo, otherwise people might get taught the wrong thing. Other than that, I loved it.m
