Conceptual Physics Thirteenth Edition
|
Our Hewitt 13th edition eText is a part of
ASU's inclusive access textbook system. You
will get an email from the Bookstore, and after
that, you will be able to access the eText from
our class Canvas page. You will be billed after
the end of drop-add. If you don't want to
participate in this system, YOU MUST OPT-OUT,
or you will be billed. Here are the detailed
instructions for access or for opting out.
The purpose of the reading assignments
is preparation for lecture; you will understand and
enjoy the lectures much better if you have done the
assigned reading. Please be
sure to always complete the reading assignment
before attending the lecture for that topic.
Thanks, GBA.

Conceptual Physics Fundamentals
ISBN 978-0-321-50136-3 or 0-321-50136-5
|
Probably the least expensive physical textbook is Conceptual Physics Fundamentals, by
Paul G. Hewitt (ISBN 978-0-321-50136-3 or 0-321-50136-5). This abridged, paperback
version of Hewitt's text contains all the readings for our course; and, if you can
find it, should probably always be less expensive that any unabridged version (as
listed below). You may
find used copies of this text published with an
alternative cover photo, shown here.
Here are the reading assignments from Conceptual Physics Fundamentals.
Practice Book
|
You may find Conceptual Physics Fundamentals
packaged with the "Practice Book".
The Practice Book contains the answers
to all of the odd-numbered exercises and problems in the text,
as well as a set of workbook style activities (with
solutions) which are coordinated with our textbook.
You may find that the Practice Book is quite
useful when studying for our tests, but none of
the workbook activities within the Practice Book
will be assigned for credit; therefore, the Practice Book
is supplemental material, and is NOT required.
Conceptual Physics Fundamentals alone will provide you
access to all required material.
Conceptual Physics Tenth Edition
|
If you happen to have a copy of Hewitt's Conceptual Physics
(10th or 11th Edition), either will serve suitably as an alternative
textbook. Here are links to the reading assignments from the
10th edition and from
the 11th edition;
these alternative reading assignments are by topic (but not
by date).
Conceptual Physics Eleventh Edition
|
Finally, here are the reading assignments from the
twelfth edition (i.e. the second-most-recent edition of the unabridged textbook).
Conceptual Physics Twelfth Edition
|
The Twelfth Edition was the first to have an etext
available, but that etext is now superseded by the
13th edition etext provided on our Canvas page. Thanks, GBA.
