Most of all, after all the math has faded away, you will recall years down the road that you had plenty of fun learning physics, and loving it with all your heart.moreįorty years later, I still own this wonderful textbook from my days in Paul Hewitt's (author) Physics class at City College in San Francisco. I survived harder, more mathematical textbooks thanks to this book's large, friendly letters. Why? Physics is a beautiful subject, and the author expresses the same opinion in every page. We couldn't be separated from each other. I looked at the cute pictures, over and over and over again. Most of all, after all the math has faded away, you will recall years down the road that yo I passed so many hours laughing at cute, nerdy jokes. With this book! Why?

Quick Paul Hewitt story: When he was on Kaua`i I had the pleasure of taking him around to three or four different schools and watching him teach the SAME lesson. to th Paul Hewitt is amazing!

How obvious!" Paul Hewitt is amazing!
