There are two listed on the Coop website and I have no idea which one is right edition for 2012 students at USYD. Help please.

I am also doing Fundamentals of Physics this year. Are these the recommended textbooks, or did you just find them on the web site?

Well one of them is listed on the enrolment booklet

The first one. The publishing company for the second link doesn't match the one mentioned in the UoS Outline.

I was told by a good friend that a website called Booko is very good for sourcing cheap textbooks.

Checked it out myself, and I could have paid half of what I paid for my big Calc textbook =(

Never buy textbooks from Co-op. Booko will be your new friend.
