For nearly 30 years, Paul Tipler's Physics for Scientists and Engineers has set the standard in the introductory calculusbased physics course for clarity, accuracy and precision. In this Fifth Edition, Gene Mosca brings his years of teaching to bear on the text, to scrutinize every explanation and example from the perspective of the freshman student. The result is a teaching tool that retains its precision and rigor, but offers struggling students the support they need to solve problems strategically and to gain real understanding of physical concepts.Binding OptionsFor instructor and student convenience, the Fifth Edition of Physics for Scientists and Engineers is available in five paperback volumes.Vol. 1A: Mechanics (Chapters 113) 2004, 0716709007Vol. 1B: Oscillations and Waves; Thermodynamics (Chapters 1420) 2004, 0716709031Vol. 2A: Electricity (Chapters 2125) 2004, 0716709023Vol. 2B: Electrodynamics; Light (Chapters 2633) 2004, 0716709015Vol. 2C: Elementary Modern Physics (Chapters 3441) 2004, 0716709066or in two hardcover volumes:Volume 1: Mechanics, Oscillations and Waves; Thermodynamics (Chapters 120 and Relativity minichapter): 2004, 0716708094Volume 2: Electricity, Magnetism, Light, and Elementary Modern Physics (Chapters 2141): 2004, 0716708108or a standard or extended hardcover edition:Standard (first 4 volumes 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B), 2004, 0716783398Extended (all 5 volumes 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, and 2C), 2004, 0716743892
