The Book of Forces

This is a well explained book that has lots of great information on the equations and how they are put to use. I have most of this authors books and I really enjoy all of them. If you are looking for a step by step approach to Physics equations and examples that put them to use, then I recommend any of his books including this one. I hope he keeps writing them because I cant wait for another one!

Also a great refresher.

As I read through this book I thought 'wow wish I had this when I was I high school and college'. The presentation is straightforward, the math solutions are well presented and easily understandable. My problem comes with some of the author's concepts. With math at this level the author should know there is no such thing as centrifugal force (there is inertia and centripetal force) but there it is, even in a title no less. Also the author confuses mass and weight, another relatively basic and important distinction. So I ask myself, what other concepts are being misrepresented that I don't know enough about to recognize? Having said that, my opening remarks still hold; straightforward, clear math explanations which is a plus in anybody's book.

This book is a powerful insight for how to look at the physical world in a rational, quantifiable way. It is written for regular people to understand and talks its way through the necessary formulae. I would recommend it to anyone with an interest in physics, anyone who is about to take a physics class, or anyone who simply wants to know more about how the world works.

No additional comments at this time.

...for a book that expects to be trusted for having reliable formulae, the table of contents isn't numbered properly. I hope the other information within is correct!

Examples and explanations are clear and easily accessible to just about anyone with an interest in physics. So much so that I would like to make one suggestion to the author - Please write a similar book (or even a few pages) that addresses forces as applied to the field of amateur astronomy. I would very much like some help in understanding the rotation and orbits of planets, binary (or larger) star systems, even galaxies, and how it all interacts. Thank you!!

The book was good, it is very much so for people who are unfamiliar with physics and are shy of math. The author holds your hand through any math, and is mostly algebra and trig in a few cases.

Leitura fácil e útil.Recomendo para estudantes de engenharia mecânica ou demais que sentem necessidade de uma primeira abordagem sobre o tema. E embora seja prático, não é superficial.

I got this text so I can be reminded of what, is there, I had become aware too.

It suits what I was looking for. I recommend it

The book contains well explained formulas and their applications to determine forces acting in a variety of scenarios.

encore un livre de mektin betkas que je conseille a tout le monde. j'aimerais qu'il existe une version papier egalement.
