University Physics for the Physical and Life Sciences, Volume 1 – eBook

In University Physics for the Physical and Life Sciences Volume 1 (PDF), authors Philip R. Kesten and David L. Tauck take a fresh and innovative approach to the university physics (calculus-based) course. They combine their experience teaching biology (Tauck) and physics (Kesten) to create a textbook that engages college students by using medical and biological applications and examples to illustrate essential concepts.

The University Physics for the Physical and Life Sciences Vol. 1 eBook teaches the fundamentals of introductory physics, while weaving in formative physiology, biomedical, and life science topics to help science students connect physics to living systems. The authors help pre-med and life-science students develop a deeper appreciation for why physics is important to their daily lives and future work. With its thorough coverage of problem-solving strategies and concepts, University Physics for the Physical and Life Sciences ebook can also be used as a novel approach to teaching physics to scientists and engineers or for a more rigorous approach to teaching the college physics (algebra-based) course.
