Physics news on Phys.org
It would interesting to read this book. But there is no info/reviews on ebay, amazon, or google books. Google doesn't even have significant search results for the title or author.
 
The book doesn't seem to be famous...it is an indian publication by an indn author...Ive heard tht it is good...but I want to clarify this from a reliable source who has used it.
thanx
 
When you look up the book on yahoo, only 7 results come up, and 2 of them are PhysForum.

Good luck with self-study.
 
hmm sometimes google only searches for english websites... maybe indian search results aren't being shown.

what kind of tests are those? are they calc based physics, algebra physics, or general concepts of physics?
