520 _aThis second edition of Serway's Physics For Global Scientists and Engineers is a practical and engaging introduction for students of calculus-based physics. Students love the local and global case studies and worked examples, concise language and high-quality artwork, in two, easy-to-carry volumes. - NEW key topics in physics, such as the Higgs boson, engage students and keep them interested - NEW Maths icons highlight mathematical concepts in the text and direct students to the relevant information in the Maths Appendix - NEW Index of Symbols provides students with a quick reference for the symbols used throughout the book This volume (one) includes Mechanics, Mechanical properties of solids and fluids, Oscillations and mechanical waves, and Thermodynamics. Volume two covers Electricity and magnetism, Light and optics, and Quantum physics.
