Hi, I'm an undergraduate physics student and I'm currently in my second week of the first semester. I wonder if I should use Sears and Zemansky's University Physics or Halliday and Resnick's Fundamentals of Physics as my book reference. Which one do you guys think is the best? or if there's any better book out there please let me know! =)

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!
