Summary Of The Book

This custom version of one of the world's most successful and popular book combines the Resnick and Halliday approach to physics with IIT-JEE entrance requirements. The readers can rely on it not only for its clear and accurate presentation of basic concepts, but also for its ability to demonstrate the power of physics in explaining the world around us.

The book explains every concept with very relevant examples and problems. Has a lot of questions, especially more than one choice type and integer based questions are worth doing.

The highlight of this version is the new end of chapter material containing all question types as per IIT-JEE pattern: Reasoning type, Multiple-choice questions and Problems. For interested students who wish to enhance their problem-solving skills further, Additional Problems have also been provided. Book is quite useful but some of the topics are in very concise form, so it is advised that students should refer to other Physics Books too to understand the concepts deeply.
