Best Book for General Physics: A Comprehensive Guide for Engineering Graduates

AI Thread Summary
An engineering graduate with a keen interest in physics seeks recommendations for a comprehensive and easily understandable physics book. Suggestions include "The Feynman Lectures on Physics," which is noted for its depth but may require multiple readings for full comprehension. Other recommended titles are "Theoretical Physics" by Georg Joos and "Advanced Physics" from Oxford, both of which are available on Amazon. The focus is on finding a single resource that covers general physics concepts in detail.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
