Zusammenfassung:Among the many changes that have taken place in physics education in recent years is the fact that physics introductory texts have undergone some drastic changes in layout, content, approach and presentation. It is a total breath of fresh air compared with the drab physics texts of yesteryear. This paper takes a closer look on the changes that have taken place and finds that for some unknown reasons authors are still very like-minded when it comes to providing answers to problems. (Contains 2 tables.)
