This is the textbook we use in my HS honors physics class. Obviously, since this is an algebra-based physics book, it should be reviewed as such. For what it does, it's really good. The examples are definitely useful, the fundamental equations and theorems are stated succinctly, and the text is neither terse nor verbose. So it's good in this regard.
What I really find valuable, though, is the set of problems given. There are three levels: non-starred, single-starred, and double-starred. The non-starred problem are the ones representative of the tests in the test bank that the teachers use for the test (made by the textbook makers) and really give you a good understanding of the material. The starred and double-starred problems are fun for those who like challenges. If you can get those, you're practically guaranteed an A on any exam your teacher gives you (if he/she uses the included test bank, that is).
Anyway, I think the most valuable thing about this book is that it teaches physics as well as problem solving. Sure, some of the exercises are simply "plug 'n chug", but after a course using this book, you should be a lot more adept at mathematical problem solving as well as physics.

This has got to be one of the most useless textbooks I've ever encountered in any subject. Moreso than any other math or science text I've seen, the authors commit the cardinal sin of solving only the simplest possible problems in in their "explanations", leaving you to fit together the pieces on the other (often rather difficult) problems at the end of the chapters. And if you thought the solutions manual would save you, SURPRISE! It won't - it only solves every 6th problem or so and generally delivers strange and convoluted solutions to simple problems. As far as the text goes, its explanations are so watered down you'd think you were looking through a text intended for junior high school (or younger) students. It constantly touts some bogus web service called "WileyPlus", which seems to exist purely to make the lives of teachers easier at their students' cost (and which you have to pay EVEN MORE to access, even if you bought the book new!). To sum it up, this text is absolute trash and an insult to the subject matter it teaches. If some professor lists this text on his or her syllabus, pitch a fit.
