College Physics, Third Edition, is intended for a two-semester general alebra-based physics course. It targets students requiring an understanding of physics in the context of the biological sciences. This edition provides a standard approach to the study of physics, with a concentration of medical and biological examples that add relevance to the study of physics for students of the life sciences. Topics in the text are introduced conceptually, with progression to analytical applications. The text is made both current and relevant to students by showcasing examples that demonstrate real-world applications, including environmental (global warming, transportation, etc.) and humanitarian (water supply, energy use in developing countries) examples.
