Question about Serway & Vuille's College Physics

[Dicentra]

Wondering if anyone knows anything about this text. When I was digging for astronomy resources, I came across course websites for General Physics I & II from one of the same profs that had an astronomy course website:

General Physics I with Dr. D. Luttermoser from East Tennessee State U

General Physics II (same prof)

 

There are certainly a ton of useful resources here so I was just wondering about the quality and readability of the text. :)

I believe I might have the text in my office; I can have a look and tell you what I think.

To be really honest: I do not think it matters that much which text you use - there are very few differences.

But I'll look tomorrow; remind me by pm if I forget.

Thanks Regentrude! My dd very much likes the layout and writing style of a Chang-style text and can't stand most texts written for high school so I'm mostly wondering if the Serway & Vuilles has the same "to-the-point" kind of writing that Chang does (I know Chang is chem but that's an example of the kind of writing style she prefers).

No hurry. :)
