Conceptual Physics defined the liberal arts physics course over 30 years ago and continues as the benchmark. Guided by the principle of concepts before calculations, the text engages students with real-world analogies and imagery. Together they build a strong conceptual understanding of physical principles, ranging from classical mechanics to modern physics.

The 13th Edition continues to make physics delightful with informative and fun Hewitt-Drew-It screencasts and updated content and applications. Expanded instructor resources provide a wealth of support with guidance on how and when to use them.
