Looking for a good Prob Solving Physics book

AI Thread Summary
For those studying University Physics and seeking additional problem-solving practice, the discussion highlights the need for resources beyond the textbook "Sears & Zemansky's U Phy." A recommended resource is "3000 Solved Problems in Physics," which is recognized for its extensive collection of problems with detailed solutions. Additionally, "Physics By Example" by W. G. Rees is mentioned as another valuable book for practice. These resources can enhance understanding and problem-solving skills in physics.

This year I will be taking University Physics. Besides understanding the concepts, I also need to practice solving problems. Although, my textbook (Sears & Zemansky's U Phy) provides some examples with solutions throughout the chapter, I would like more. Does anyone know of a good book with problems and detailed solutions to them? Or anything in this ballpark? Thank you in advance for your help.

Thread 'Ashcroft and Mermin: revised edition'

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!

Thread 'How is Jackson’s Electrodynamics taught during undergraduate?'

I’ve heard that in some countries (for example, Argentina), the curriculum is structured differently from the typical American program. In the U.S., students usually take a general physics course first, then move on to a textbook like Griffiths, and only encounter Jackson at the graduate level. In contrast, in those countries students go through a general physics course (such as Resnick-Halliday) and then proceed directly to Jackson. If the slower, more gradual approach is considered...
