In Russian or in English? Если на русском, то безусловно Ландсберг.

The book has not been published since 1981, but you can still buy it used on amazon.(com|co.uk), click on “used & new”… It does not matter that it’s so old, the advances in physics research in the past 25 years are important only for graduate students.

I don’t really like these American 1000-page books that try to cover everything, but “University Physics” by Young and someone else isn’t too bad.
