franc.stoic: What is the best physics textbook for undergraduate students?
Kindly note that it should be a one-stop textbook, in the sense that all fundamental physics topics should be covered in one book. Hence, please don’t advise books that specifically deal with electromagnetism or quantum physics, for example. Thank you!

1. Feynman, Richard; Leighton, Robert; Sands, Matthew (1989). Feynman Lectures on Physics. Addison-Wesley. ISBN 0-201-51003-0
2. Halliday, David; Resnick, Robert; Walker, Jearl. Fundamentals of Physics 7th ed. ISBN 0-471-21643-7
3. Serway, Raymond A.; Jewett, John W. (2004). Physics for Scientists and Engineers (6th ed.). Brooks/Cole. ISBN 0-534-40842-7
4. H. C. Verma (2005). Concepts of Physics. Bharti Bhavan. ISBN 81-7709-187-5
The first book I listed is best, according to me, but only to a certain extent, since it has some casual/”unofficial” explanations. Halliday/Resnick is a best choice for serious students seeking to gain mastery of the topic.
