<p>It doesnt matter which one of those amazon books you buy, as long as theyre the same edition as the one sold by the school (4th ed). Although, I would suggest getting the 1-37 since it comes with masteringphysics. </p>
<p>the handbook is what i believe is the workbook where you will do discussion worksheets and labs from.</p>
<p>What about custom textbooks, such as the one for math 1a/b. Does it matter if it's the custom version purchased from the school bookstore or can it just be the complete version sold elsewhere?</p>
<p>i'm not 100% sure since ive nevr bought the 1a/b or complete stewarts, but i would believe it was the same as long as the editions are the same.</p>
