Title: Stupid errors on every third page
Product review: It would have been five stars if someone had read the manuscript and checked for absurd errors. You can still use it if you get a kick out of spotting outrageous author errors. But they aren't typos. They're wacko errors. So, if you are not excellent at math and science, you simply cannot use the book. It will sink you into confusion.The only explanation is this: Browne wanted to give one of his sophomore physics students a project, namely to fill in many of the details of the book. The kid peed his pants and did the job with such excitment that he made loads of errors a high school student would spot. Browne didn't bother to read the damn thing to see whether the kid made any errors. No, he put the thing in an envelope and sent it to the publisher, who published it without checking for errors. Stupid.If Browne had spent a single work day correcting the howlers, it would have been five stars. It still has that Schaum's quality to it.
