Description
This book arms engineers with the tools to apply key physics concepts in the field. A number of the key figures in the new edition are revised to provide a more inviting and informative treatment. The figures are broken into component parts with supporting commentary so that they can more readily see the key ideas. Material from "The Flying Circus" is incorporated into the chapter opener puzzlers, sample problems, examples and end-of-chapter problems to make the subject more engaging. Checkpoints enable them to check their understanding of a question with some reasoning based on the narrative or sample problem they just read. Sample Problems also demonstrate how engineers can solve problems with reasoned solutions.

Best Physics book at cheapest rate !!

The book is a mammoth with 1300 pages of text .
It gives you knowledge of all the physics concepts in such an easy manner that you would read this book like a novel if you have interest in science .
There are more than 100 questions/problems at the end of each chapter and there are 44 chapters !!!
There is a picture and an interesting question before every chapter and they tell the answer in between the chapter .

In short if you want a physics book that is really a complete book and that too...

Good for problems and concepts are fine

I loved the practical way of presentation, very good set of problems (tougher than IIT standard). Even in 2009 IIT physics paper i see a question taken out from one of the exercise in electrostatics from this book (e.g. finding the potential of a solid sphere after a cavity is removed).
Try other excellent books available for extra concepts related IIT entrance but don't leave any problem unsolved in this book. really great deal in terms of price.

HIGHLY RECOMMONDEED FOR FLYERS ONLY ..

This book is Great! But only for those who are strong enough to know all the base. They should have all the General concepts of physics and should be capable to solve many of the ncert(any state board textbook).

great book for theory(but not for advanced)

The theory of the book is great but it doesn't have many important derivations such as centre of mass of sphere,disc,cone,triangle etc.,also it doesn't have inclined projection.I recommend it especially for cbse level.Anyway if u r buying it for cbse,go for it......

GOOD

FIRST OF ALL THANKS FLIPKART FOR ITS AMAZIN SERVICES!
THIS BOOK IS NICE ATTRACTIVE AND DIGS UP RIGHT TO BUILD YOUR BASE AND CONCEPTS FOR IITJEE. ONLY ONE THING BAD ABOUT THIS IS THAT THE TEXT IS TOO LENGHTY AND U HAVE TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME TO READ IT! SOMETIMES IT BORES U.THE PRACTICE BOK QUESTIONS ARE OF A GOOD LEVEL, BUT MANY QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN TAKEN FROM P[RADEEP
BUT IF ONE READS IT PROPERLY BY HEART U WILL FEEL CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO FACE QUESTIONS.

Great introduction of intermediate physics

I use this book to teach my Daughter - Book has good description and is full of excellent examples. Also it takes an algebra based approach which I think makes it ideal for people who don't have background in calculus.
Lot of practical applications are given as well - Book is verbose and it really needs time to read. If you are short of time, use H.C.Verma but if you want to enjoy physics and that too a strong conceptual overview, this book should be on the top of your list. At times I see s...
