Gee, based on those reviews, it sounds to me like he got it right! These
HS students who wrote the reviews seem to want to be spoon-fed. Oh, like
many of the students here! Or at your institution!
I haven't seen the book, but I wouldn't pass judgment based on those
comments.

On 07/11/2007 06:38 PM, Thomas McCarthy asked:
Can someone comment on the 2005 edition of Zitzewitz's Physics:
Principles and Problems book from Glencoe? In particular, has it
greatly improved over the previous versions?
I have no first-hand knowledge of the 2005 edition .....
but I observe that the customer reviews on amazon.com are
as bad as you would expect based on previous editions:
