You will learn new material from the book and it is not completely terrible but here are its main faults: 1. Simple concepts are explained poorly and over-complicated. 2. Graphics are all black-and-white and generally dull. 3. There are numerous errors in the examples and calculations, making it difficult to know if you understand the concepts or not.
What can I say....college text are college text. I have almost NEVER seen a text that gave clear consise explainations about anything. Some explainations are clear while others are not! That is a real problem as I see it. For myself, looking at consise explainations is a world of help. I know we are supposed to learn, but if your second guessing yourself while completeing problems, then that makes the whole process that much more difficult! Maybe I'm in bad mood or something. Descent text - but some points could be better explained - as in all textbooks.
I am using book for my current course work. I find this book poor in providing student with enough information or steps in understaning each sections. I am looking else where for additional help to understand these subjects.
Buy here at a great price with excellent delivery options...or pay through the nose at the college bookstore...your choice. The condition of the used books purchased here is always satisfactory
