Title: Frustrating book because of different teaching style
Review: I used this book for a college course in physics and found it very frustrating. The book has good intentions of not showing you how to solve everything to try and get you to apply physics yourself and not just use some memorized formulas. However the book falls short in that it doesn't provide a foundation of how to go about solving problems when you're not sure what equations to use. As someone who took a prior physics course I found this book very disappointing with their approach of throwing you in the water and seeing if you can swim. If you plan to learn physics effectively I would plan on buying another physics book to supplement this one to answer the physics questions this book doesn't.
