I have ebook copy of the book. PM me. I don't think anybody owns copyright for this.
The forum discussion centers on the challenges of acquiring S.S. Krotov's "Aptitude Test Problems in Physics," particularly regarding its availability outside India. Participants share their experiences and suggest alternative problem books, including A.A. Pinsky's and H.C. Verma's works. Krotov's book is noted for its affordability at approximately Rs 55 and the inclusion of solutions for all problems, making it a valuable resource for self-learners. Users also discuss the comparative difficulty of Krotov's problems relative to other authors like Irodov and Verma.

(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!
