Title: A student's perspective -- this book is horrible
Review: I don't know who is paying the other critics to give this book a high rating but this book has a lot of problems. There is an insufficient number of sample problems with answers, which is a minimum requirement for any math book. The questions at the end of each chapter are not related to the examples described within the chapters. It can take hours to frame a problem and even then you are not sure if your answers are correct because you have no way to check your work. "We will leave that as an excersise for the student" -- what a cop out.The sad part is that the material should not be impossible to learn. The authors have managed to take a difficult subject and make it worse. You know you are in trouble when your professor is also struggling with the material in the book. Whatever happened to "reaching the students".
