What's the difference between Halliday's Physics (2 volumes) and his Fundamentals of Physics??

Physics is much better than Fundamentals of Physics IMO.

The last thread maybe the most interesting.
You can do some searches yourself if you need more info.

Does it go more in-depth into the concepts of each topic? How about the difficulty of the problems?

If I remember correctly, the difficulty of the problems is approximately the same.

The clarity of the original Physics is greater and it does go more in-depth. Fundamentals is like a watered down version of the original.
