Abstract
The Physics textbook remains one of the main resources used in the Brazilian Public Basic Education, being subject of study of several researches. However, considerations about the national reach of the books selected for analysis are not present in many of these researches, which may hinder or prevent a better interpretation of the results achieved and definition of the criteria for choosing works for analysis. Thus, aiming to provide subsidies to support research on High School Physics textbook, we surveyed the total of collections adopted throughout the Brazilian territory for the 2018-2020 triennium. The data were obtained from the National Fund for the Development of Education (FNDE), corresponding to the choices made by public schools at the end of 2017. In general, a significant national uniformity was observed, especially in the southeast and northeast areas. One collection, recognized as having a more traditional profile, stood out as the one with the largest number of books adopted in 21 (twenty-one) states.
