Exploring the World of Physics

My 9th grader chose the survey of the sciences curriculum for his science this year. He's now completed this book and all of the questions, quizzes, and tests.

We almost opted to skip this book and do it last because the first lesson seemed to challenge him and he thought maybe he was in over his head. And even for the next lesson he was very unsure. But he also wanted to keep going ...it was a very conflicting time, but it paid off big time! I don't know when exactly he had lightbulb moments, but definately way before half way through the book. The info started to "click" and things made sense, and he actually really truly enjoyed the rest! It got him so excited for science, now he is eager to crack open the next book. :)

The way the material is worded makes the science come to life, and its not dry and overly technical like some other curricula are. While this book doesn't go into significant detail, it is a good foundation for studying physics further. I recommend this book to someone who thinks they may enjoy physics but not sure about doing a deep dive into a year-long course.

We used this book as part of the Survey of Science History & Concepts course, but it would also be a good introduction to physics for anyone who’s interested in the topic.

I purchased this in an electronic format. With so much content on the internet to be concerned with, this resource provides a digital reference for my daughter that I can trust, that honors God. Thank You Master Books!!!

We love all of Tiner's books and have purchased all of them. Our kids are still young, but we use these books as read alouds and for research. They are such an engaging read and packed with great information. I plan to use them with Master Book's Survey of Science History & Concepts when my children are ready for that course.

The books from this series are so fascinating! Kids love them and adults too! Love to leave them around the house and kids pick them up and enjoy learning without knowing it!!! Love how Christ-centered they are too!!

We love the book it was helpful and engaging for my son and he was able to understand material much easier.

We have a few of these books by Tiner now. I bought this one on a recent sale because it was a good price and I know little about physics as a science. TIner does such a good job of explaining difficult concepts so that anyone can understand them. My kids haven't been introduced to this particular book yet, but will get to it before the school year is over. They aren't even complaining about it because they, too, like the Tiner series. I have a feeling we'll soon own them all. Love that they are set up as a textbook with short review questions and further research option at the end of each chapter. This allows for great flexibility with this book as a course or as a reader only.

I love everything aby this author. I have read through the book and am excited to use it for my daughters science curriculum this semester.

This has been a good addition to our science collection. Great book!
