Summary: OK until the end of the chapter Questions
Comment: The chapters are easy to follow until one attemps the end of the chapter problems and apply the knowledge gained.

I commend Serway on his approach to critical thinking and guidance but the questions at the end of the chapters are unnecessarily ambigous and sometimes vague or do not coincide with the chapters readings.

For example, Chapter 2 question 38, out of an American folksong, one must determine the hourly wage of an oil driller with assumptions. How to associate this with Motion in One Dimension?

It is professionally well written and organized but again the questions do not lead to learning just more research.

Another problem, I have to believe that was written for his peers not the students since the students solutions manual does not have many solutions for every chapter. At times, 11 out of 57.

Science is not hard to grasp and any eighth grader can understand physics and simple calculus. It is just the approach and presentation, also the focus of the student- but as air resistance is not a factor to accleration due to gravity.

Dr. Serway, in the forth edition, hopefully with some new Archimedes proofs, just revise the questions and give those students a fighting chance.
