These easy-to-understand, self-teaching books are perfect for learning the basics, brushing up before testing, or for review. They cover all the essentials for each subject, presenting fundamental concepts with clear, easy to understand language and examples. Easy Way titles cover advanced high school and college-101 levels. The practical ‘get to the point’ approach enables the student to cover the subject matter thoroughly in a shorter amount of time. I went through the chemistry text and found it to be excellent and as in-depth and challenging as necessary for high school. See our foreign language, math, and consumer math and business sections for more of these great books.

Physics The Easy Way
Here is an introduction to physics for high school students, college-101 courses, or students looking for a self-teaching introduction to this sometimes intimidating science. The author makes physics easier to comprehend by using ordinary language to explain concepts. Mathematical techniques, limited to elementary algebra, are introduced and used throughout to provide the necessary rigor and to give students the tools they need to solve problems. Topics introduced include motion, forces, machines, energy, heat, wave motion, noise and music, electricity, magnetism, electromagnetic waves, the properties of light, and an introduction to nuclear physics. May be used by prospective medical school students to help them prepare for many questions that appear in the MCAT. Material in the text that applies to the MCAT as well as material specific to college-level introductory physics is marked with an asterisk.
