 Saved money. August 22, 2010

As your prof if it's ok to buy books an edition older, they are all the same anyways. This book saved me a boat load of money, compared to buying the newest edition.

This book is very helpful if you are an engineer early in your college career who needs to learn the basics of freshmen-level physics. Topic-specific chapters are organized well and contain just enough information for the student to get a basic idea of the material while feeling overwhelmed.
Pretty well written December 28, 2009

I found this book fairly easy to follow. I wish there more detailed solutions for the exercises at the end of each chapter (maybe those are in a teacher's manual). There are several examples in each chapter that are helpful.
 Book Written ONLY for Physicist. What about the avg. JOE? October 23, 2009

I agree with other reviews, the book "Physics for Scientists and Engineers" is a LOUSY book at explaining concepts, not only that but also some fundamental algebra steps are missing (author thinks you already know the algebra steps).
Overral, is a good book, very organize, explains good how to derive the equations and formulas, and their exercises are very nice to work with, but not good at explaining the concepts and mathematical approach.
I'm a student at City College of New York (Mechanical Engineering), I found this book very good if you previously know the chapters before reading this book. So, in order to do that I read the "University Physics by Young and Freedman" ISBN# 0805391797. And believe me the average grade for Physics 207 was a 50 something; and I got a B grade also a friend of mine got an A grade with the hardest professor by reading the "University Physics" first, then the "Physics for Scientists and Engineers".
My remarks is, if you want to learn physics and you are an AVERAGE JOE like me, then read 2 books:
1st) "University Physics" by Young and Freedman ISBN# 0805391797 cost around [... is a bargain] in amazon(just read the concepts and do examples).
2nd) "Physics for Scientists and Engineers" by Serway (read the concepts again, do examples again, use their equations, and DO THEIR EXERCISES).
