Is thre anywhere online i can find what books a school uses for what class? If not what are some good astrophysics books that i...

I have an older text I found, and was wondering if it is ok to use as an intro to physics. It is Physics vol 1. halliday and resnick.copyright is 66'

what would an industrial physicist do?

I understand physics vs engineering, is like thinking/solving vs applying. But what exactly does a physicist do? could I get a few examples? Also how is Ohio U. in terms of undergrad for bothy physics and engineering, I may be getting a full ride. Thanks for the help.
