Hello,

Thank you for your interest in physics and for reaching out to me with your question. I am always excited to hear about individuals wanting to learn more about the natural world and the laws that govern it.

In regards to the text you found, "Unlock the Mysteries of Physics Vol 1: Halliday & Resnick (1966)", I would say that it is perfectly fine to use as an introduction to physics. While it may be an older text, the fundamental principles and theories of physics have not changed significantly since 1966. In fact, many of the concepts and equations presented in this text are still widely used and taught in modern physics courses.

However, it is important to keep in mind that there may be some advancements and updates in the field of physics since the publication of this text. I would recommend supplementing your learning with more recent materials and staying up-to-date with current research and discoveries in the field.

Overall, I believe that any resource that helps you understand and appreciate the beauty and complexity of physics is valuable. So go ahead and use the text as an introduction to physics, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions.

Best of luck in your studies!
