BIG BOOK September 11, 2008 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book has a ton of info, but is a bit to wordy. I guess the author gets paid by the page number.
Trash December 3, 2007 1 out of 15 found this review helpful
So maybe the word trash is a bit harsh but not by much. This book has sections where they give NO explanation of WHY something is the way it is. They spend pages and pages deriving forumlas, and then completely discarding them and making up their own new formulas for the examples. And often they don't even both to explain why or how they are allowed mathematically to do such things. Now before u bash this review keep in mind i am admitting that the ENTIRE book is not like that. But honestly i have had calculus books that are much more insightful than this. Piece of trash.
