- This second edition of Serway's Physics For Global Scientists and Engineers is a practical and engaging introduction for students of calculus-based physics. Students love the local and global case studies and worked examples, concise language and high-quality artwork, in two, easy-to-carry volumes. This volume (one) includes Mechanics, Mechanical properties of solids and fluids, Oscillations and mechanical waves, and Thermodynamics. Volume two covers Electricity and magnetism, Light and optics, and Quantum physics.
