College Physics: A Strategic Approach presents basic physics, using real world examples to engage you and help you connect physics with other fields such as biological sciences and architecture. From these connections, you'll learn in research-driven ways to understand why you are taking the course and how it applies to other areas.

The 4th Edition expands its focus from how you learn physics to focus on why you learn physics. Problems use real data to show physics at work and to help you see that physics is the science underlying everything around us.
