Summary: Cutnell and Johnson's Physics delivers an effective and accessible introduction to college and university physics. It contains easy-to-follow explanations of critical math and problem-solving concepts. From kinematics to work and energy, temperature, heat, electricity, magnetism, and optics as well as foundational concepts in more advanced subjects like special relativity, Physics is the ideal introductory text for students from any background. This International Adaptation of the twelfth edition of the books aims to preserve and to enhance the synergistic relationship between problem solving and conceptual understanding, which is the core strength of this text. Conceptual Understanding helps students tighten their grasp of physics concepts and how they fit together to provide a coherent description of natural phenomena. Problem Solving features help students with their ability to reason in an organized and mathematically correct manner, which is essential to solving problems and improving reasoning skills. The text offers expanded coverage of some topics and reorganization of few others. Building on the success of Team Problems, the number of these context-rich problems at the end of each chapter has been increased. A new section of problems, Physics in Biology, Sports, and Medicine is included at the end of chapters that highlights physics applications in the life sciences. The other problem types are updated and revised and presented completely in SI units.
