With its time-tested problems, pioneering conceptualand visual pedagogy, and next-generation media package,the Eleventh Edition of Young and Freedman's UniversityPhysics is the classic physics textbook with an eye onthe future. Using Young & Freedman's research-basedISEE (Identify, Set up, Execute, Evaluate)problem-solving strategy, students develop the physicalintuition and problem-solving skills required to tacklethe text's extensive high-quality problem sets thathave been developed and refined over the past fivedecades. The completely redesigned, pedagogicallyconsistent artwork and diagrams integrate seamlesslywith the text to help students better visualize keyconcepts.
