Don't judge this book by it's cover. It seems pretty old, but it's actually a pretty useful book. Contains a lot of information in a very easy to understand format. If your looking for a basic understanding of physics and the basics of science in general, this is the book for you. I would highly recommend this book for any intro science/physics class.

As a post-secondary instructor, I find this text presents a subject many students find difficult in a non-intimidating fashion. The prologue does a fine job setting up the tone of the rest of the book without scaring or boring the student. A sufficient amount of text is dedicated to the concepts of physical science rather than bombarding the learner with equation after equation (although the equations are there, as they're necessary to back up the concepts). Some textbooks help to make teaching easier. This would be one of those books.
