VERY GOOD: The textbook, solutions manual and tests are in excellent condition.
Product Details
The author makes no recommendation as to background required for this course, however upon review of the problems and tests we believe a strong Algebra and Geometry background is appropriate.
The writing style in the Apologia science books is casual and conversational, designed specifically for students to study the material independently. Because of this, the course is very popular among homeschooling families. The textbook begins with a "Need Help?" page which provides the author's mailing address; e-mail address; web site; fax and phone numbers. This is followed by a "Student Notes" section which explains to the student what is expected of them as to memorization for test taking and problem solving. Overall this is a well-structured textbook giving the student a strong Physics background for college level classes.
