5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant book! 13 Nov 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am a first year Physics undergraduate at Imperial College and this book covers all the major topics in a clear and concise way.
To see a full list of everything covered go to the 'search inside this book' link below its image.
The book starts each topic from the basics, so don't worry about being thrown in at the deep end having forgotten stuff. But also don't be put off thinking it wastes time on the basics, it doesn't.
There are a lot of question and answers on all the topics as you go along so you can check your understanding, and worked examples too.
I would say it is best for physics and I would double check with the course teacher/lecturer for biology or chemistry as it is not cheap. For me, it was the perfect choice!

This book is everything you need if your doing any course in Physics. Covers every aspect of Maths you'll ever need, explains things with clarity and ease. Probably the best and handiest book I have!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful 5 Aug 2008
By Solet
Format:Hardcover
This was recommended to me by a physicist in the year above me at Oxford - have successfully used it for a year in Physics, and from next year's syllabus it should be fine for the second year too. It was set at the right level and does everything rigorously (for a non-mathematician), leaving no confusing contradictions when you learn more advanced topics. The explanations and questions are all well thought out for developing an understanding of the topics.
