Title: Huge Dissapointment
Product review: This review is for the second edition text, but I am putting it here since the page for that book does not yet yet have a place for customer reviews.First off, the two prior reviews for this text are highly suspect. The text is basically a collection of highly complex mathematical formulas with little explanation. The physics, statistics, and calculus courses I took for my computer science degree were not nearly adequate preparation for this book. Even after dusting off my old math books and trying to refamiliarize myself with the content, the first few chapters were nearly impossible to trudge through. Perhaps this text could serve as a reference if you were already a professional in the field, but as any sort of learning aid, it is completely useless.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
