Each chapter ends with problems that require knowledge from previous chapters. This combats the common student habit of forgetting material after an exam.
Physics is an inherently visual subject. Kinematics involves trajectories; electromagnetism involves invisible fields; thermodynamics involves PV-diagrams. The 5th edition boasts a robust art program that is tightly integrated with the text. Unlike older texts where figures were merely decorative, in Giambattista’s book, the illustrations are teaching tools.
