Title: OK Textbook, I Guess
Product review: We used this book in the Calculus I class I just finished. My teacher was great, so I have an A or A- in the class (grades aren't in yet), but it was no thanks at all to this textbook. Whenever I got stuck on a problem, I would try to go back to the chapter for some guidence, but, well, there isn't any. I am very good at math, and I had a hard time following what they were doing in the examples. There were more than a couple of problem formats at the end of the chapter that weren't really explained at all in the text. I guess if your teacher only uses the book for the end of chapter exercises, it is good, but we still had to go over a lot of them in class because, like I said, the book didn't explain how to do some of them and we were all lost.
