 Well written!!! June 25, 2010

This book covers calculus and other areas of mathematics. I can only speak for the
calculus sections. They are written more clearly than 99% of the available texts
to be had. The examples given are extremely helpful and appropriate for the material
presented. The problems are very closely related to the material presented. I asked
the authors why they did not write a version for math and physics majors. I think
the bottom line is that they did not want to undertake such a project. However, even
with the missing theory this a good book for reviewing calculus on a self study basis.

I wasn't expecting the delivery to come in until next week, but it came about 4 days later. It really helped since I had homework due that week!

The book was in perfect condition for what I needed. Just as described, and a great price for it as well.

While the book excels at teaching the basic concepts, during the later parts, it flops badly. where in the beginning the examples actually dealt with the questions in some vague, but some understandable wa, the ending chapters from 4-6 fail horribly. Of the many questions in the book, the examples at best give some minor insight into maybe 1/4 of them. There are even problems that have no way of linking them to the examples and even my professor had to teach how to do them in a manner very unlike the textbook.
It's good for maybe the first 3 chapters, but after that, don't count on it for anything except raw questions.
