I'm a physicist and I have no idea who Smart, Seto, or Porat are,
however I do know who Sears and Zamenski, Halliday and Resnick,
Maxwell, Harnwell, Rossi, Morgan, Lorraine, and Wehr are, and what
they've documented in their texts. Perhaps you would be less confused
if you would study books by these well known authors of physics texts,
and spend less time on the coffee-table books that you've found at the
local mall bookstore.
An interesting aspect of REAL TEXTBOOKS is the fact that information
contained within them is experimentally reproducible and/or verifiable.
This is why universities have lab sessions to accompany the reading and
lecture material, so you can verify what is taught on a first hand,
up-close and personal basis. Student of physics are a skeptical lot,
believe nothing that they've only read, and demand personal
observation/verification of what is claimed to be.
