Introductory Physics is the ideal text for a non-vector-based physics course. Full of rich, intelligent graphics, lucid prose and well-integrated discussions of the history of science, mathematics, and the role of faith in scientific investigation, this book is the first of its kind.

This book was designed for grade-level freshmen, but it is also suitable for physics in the sophomore or junior year. In fact, optional chapters are added for the benefit of schools where physics occurs in 10th or 11th grade and students can move more quickly through the material. Mathematical...

ASPC is designed for honors-level or accelerated high school freshmen. It is a physical science text that trims away the fat and goes deep so that students get a solid preparatory foundation in these two subjects. Centripetal Press advocates a "physics first" approach to the high school science sequence. In short, having a light physics-based course in 9th grade creates the possibility of carry-over into later science course in a way that the standard "biology first" sequence does not. Energy, work, heat transfer, the atomic model, the periodic table, substances, atomic bonding, and other...

The activities in this book are the results of those years trying things out and improving my home-made apparatus to increase the reliability and accuracy of the results. These experiments and teacher demonstrations are the ones I presently do in my own classes, the little carts and friction boxes now gathering dust in a closet.
Most of these experiments can be performed very inexpensively. In my descriptions I indicate how to do the experiment with little investment, making the experiments accessible to schools and homes with limited funds. Over the years I have enhanced some of...

Six experiments to accompany Introductory Physics and ASPC

• The Pendulum Lab
• The Soul of Motion Lab
• The Hot Wheels Lab
• DC Circuits
• The Solubility Lab
• The Density Lab

Experiments are designed to teach students how to function in a laboratory, how to take measurements, how to calculate and account for error, how to use new equipment, and how to create a proper lab report on a computer from scratch.

Suitable for any honors chemistry course, this text is especially suited to follow our ASPC text for accelerated high school sophomores.

This text starts where Centripetal's ASPC leaves off, with some fundamentals already under the belt: density, substances, and the periodic table. (Not covered those yet? Don't worry. We have a supplemental booklet to quickly get students up to speed on those concepts. Ask about our Chemistry Supplement.)

This text is for students who can move a little faster, who don't need as many explanations, and who can handle a little...

Principles of Chemistry uses a mastery-learning paradigm designed to bring students to a excellent grasp of concepts and skills. The author's conversational style is a favorite with students, and combined with a special skill for lucidity and detail, this text is what has been sorely missing from education. Students also appreciate the smaller profile and lighter weight of our books--something everyone notices immediately. This is possible because of the text covers an amount that can reasonably be covered in one year, rather than being stuffed with unnecessary chapters.

Full solutions to all calculation problems in Accelerated Chemistry.This is a useful supplement to students and teachers in schools or homeschooling environments. While the answers to problems are in the text, this book is for anyone who would like help with the working out the exercises in Accelerated Chemistry. In this book, the author "shows his work" and how each problem or calculation is solved.

Challenges abound in education today, compelling thoughtful educators to search for new teaching methods and solutions for the classroom. Private schools, charter...

Designed for grade-level 9th to 11th grade students, Introductory Physics the perfect non-vector course that covers key concepts and skills for success in future science courses. Elegant, hype-free graphics and lucid text in a modestly-sized volume that students will appreciate.

Introductory Physics is a superior choice for a non-vector-based physics course. Centripetal Press textbooks strive to draw students upward into the adult world of scientific investigation. Therefore, the illustrations are aesthetically pleasing and free of media-influenced hype that dominates many textbooks...
