The discussion centers around the difficulty of finding specific physics problem books, particularly S.S. Krotov's "Aptitude Test Problems in Physics." Participants express frustration over the limited availability of these books outside of India, with many noting that they are inexpensive but challenging. Some users mention having found online sellers that ship to various countries, including Europe and South America. The conversation also touches on the lack of solution manuals for Krotov's book, with some asserting that all problems are solved within the text itself. Other recommended authors include A.A. Pinsky, L.A. Sena, and V. Zubov, with varying degrees of difficulty and availability of answers. H.C. Verma's book is discussed, with mixed opinions on its value compared to other texts. Overall, the community seeks assistance in locating and purchasing these resources, highlighting their importance for self-learners and students preparing for competitive exams.

Hey, I was about to ask the same thing, when I found your post!
(it's not visibility then!)
I've also googled it, and even found some websites that sell it, but it appears they only ship to India (I live in south america, so, it isn't very helpful!). It also seems to be very cheap and very hard (I've read in a forum it is so cheap that it isn't even worth downloading it), I believe it's worth buying it!

By the way, is there a solution's manual for Krotov (as there is for Irodov)? I'm a self learner, so if it doesn't have the solutions in the book, or a solution's manual, it will not be very helpful.

By the way (2), there seems to be a few more authors with problem books worth buying:


A.A Pinsky Problems in Physics Reference Book
S.S Krotov Aptitude Test Problems in Physics Reference Book
L.A. Sena A collection of questions and Problems in Physics Reference Book
V.Zubov & V.Shalnov Problem in Physics Reference Book

Anyone here knows something about these books (difficulty, availability of answers etc) and how to buy them?

Many Thanks!
