College Physics: Putting It All Togetheris an algebra-based physics text designed for the first year, non-calculus college course. Although it covers the traditional topics in the traditional order, this book is very different from its over-inflated and overpriced competitors. College Physics: Putting It All Together:

features a clear and streamlined narrative. When the authors break away to introduce a worked example, it is introduced in the text and is directly related to the subject preceding it.
tells the students what they need to know to solve the homework and test problems without a lot of unnecessary puffery.
keeps students engaged with a friendly and even occasionally humorous writing style, and droll illustrations.
handles common student misconceptions in difficult topics by weaving them into the narrative.
retains key textbook elements that are truly useful, such as worked examples, summaries and plenty of chapter-ending problems.
priced affordably for your students.

This textbook is a ground-breaking iconoclast in this market, answering a clear demand from physics instructors for a clearer, shorter, more readable and less expensive introductory textbook.

Industry Reviews

"A briefer, less detailed, and more affordable textbook is keenly needed for the introductory, algebra-based physics course. I applaud Hellings & co. for undertaking this important challenge."--John R. Taylor, University of Colorado
"College Physics has been an outstanding text overall. It has been perfect for the needs of my students, providing succinct and clear explanations of all necessary concepts without either skimping on derivations or getting lost on pointless rabbit trails. I could not be more pleased with the content of this text."--Josh Edgren, Augustine School
"I love this book. It is concise and to the point. Kudos for not having too much unnecessary entertainment, side panels, activities and the like. I would adopt it for my course with no reservations."--Svetlana Gladycheva, Towson University
"This is a stream-lined and cost-effective college physics book that is very well-written. The strong narrative text coupled with effective examples and problems provides an excellent resource for college physics students at my institution."--Michael Dunham, SUNY Fredonia
"This text is great. I've also found the solutions manual to be very helpful, and the notes to the instructor and suggested lecture breakdowns are a phenomenal tool....There is no reason that this book shouldn't become the face of algebra-based physics going forward!"--Matthew Srnec, Franciscan University of Steubenville
