hey, in the BOS updates page, they have put a new file by Neville warren:


http://www.boredofstudies.org/cours...ysics_Physics_N_Excel_Book_Neville_Warren.pdf

i dowloaded it as i thought it was notes...but its actually the whole excel physics book...

can someone look at the above and tell me if my claim is correct?...if so then i shouldn't bought the book in the first place. since its available online.

the author himself did it...

I don't think its scanned. I'd say its an original maybe... It's got active (web) links etc, so can't be scanned.

yeah, and the colour graphics, and the fact that u can click on the contents and it will take u to the page u wanted...

 

[tieki]

Ah...hadn't had a good look at it yet...sorry Neville

 

[deyveed]

Its a nice resource but isn't it a breach of copyright laws or something?

 

[underthesun]

yep it's the whole book.

However, its the 1999 syllabus version, not the 2002 or 2001 syllabus version like what it is now..

Someone probably hacked his computer, since it's really unlikely for him to upload it. Or someone else by the name of neville warren..

A tip for stealing textbooks from dymocks::

Turn the book to the back. You should see a barcode. You know how those people put their scanners next to the barcode to deactivate whatever alarm crap they have there? Flip the pages around, and search for a metallic sticker, located in the same section as where the barcode is. Tear off the sticker. Run with the book.

i've never tried, but I realised there was a metallic sticker

back on topic, it's better to actually buy the book. YOu're not going to print all that 359 pages +, and the latest excel book is updated in terms of syllabus i believe..

359pgs hey...

well my school printer will be fucked after tommorow

yeah, i hate those metallic stickers, c sometimes they stick in on top of the writing of the book so when u try 2 remove the stickers, it wrecks the paper as well...:mad1:

just rip the whole pg off!
