I have been looking for a book on basic, elementary physics for quite some time.  The books I was able to find were unsuitable for a few different reasons.  One reason was that they often came in more than one volume, which was expensive.  Another problem was the lack of self-tests.  Finally, some required you to use the Internet for part of their program.<br><br>This book was designed for someone who is learning on their own.  It has frequent questions, and self-tests after various sections.  This lets you know whether you've actually understood what you've just learned.  You get feedback right away, which is important.  This way, when I've missed something I become aware of it right away, so I can go back and review whatever it was that I missed.<br><br>Would recommend, to those who want to learn some of the basics of physics.
