Alan Giambattista’s algebra-based introductory physics texts take a conceptual and intuitive approach, combined with consistent problem-solving strategies, stunning art, extensive end-of-chapter material, and superior digital support. College Physics uses an innovative forces-first presentation that integrates forces and Newton's laws into the subsequent introduction of kinematics. Physics covers the same topics but in a more traditional, kinematics-first order. The organization of chapters 2-4 is the sole difference between the two texts; the two options offer the instructor flexibility in teaching preferences.
