Please recommend a good introductory book on Engineering Physics. I'd like to buy a printed book, with a decent number of examples and samples.

I've taken Calculus I, and are taking Calculus II this semester.

engineering physics = physics

It only gets different from the physics programme in the later semesters, and the courses vary from one university to another.
Also, it would be easier to recommend a book if you can specify the subject/course/topic.
