Hey I purchased this book and was wondering how hard do you think this book is?

Irodov is, in my opinion, one of the best problem books in general physics.
Solving problems from Irodov, will give you a really good conceptual understanding of the subject and will do wonders to your confidence.
Be warned, some of the problems are *Really* hard and require a lot of thought. But that shouldn't put you off from attempting the problems from the book.

Where can I find Irodov's book on the net? (It's unavailable at amazon.com)
