Will In CO
Hello everyone at PF

I'm a retired military officer preparing for a second career as a teacher. First choice, high school physics, otherwise middle school science or middle or high school math. I haven't used my physics much in over 25 years, so relearning is my challenge. Wish me luck!

Thanks for the tip. I added the book to my wish list.
