@lt;i@gt;Physics@lt;/i@gt; 2nd edition is an alternate version of the @lt;i@gt;College Physics@lt;/i@gt; 3rd edition text by Giambattista/Richardson/Richardson. The key difference is that @lt;i@gt;Physics@lt;/i@gt; covers kinematics and forces in the more traditional organization of beginning with Kinematics and proceeding to forces. (@lt;i@gt;College Physics@lt;/i@gt; takes an integrated approach to forces and kinematics, introducing forces and interweaving kinematics.)
