Title: not for beginners!
Product review: I've been using this text for two semesters. I have to say this book is too advanced for starters, especially after chapter 6. My biggest complaint is the author does not provide enough examples to illustrate the theorems. A majority of the sections usually go like: 1. proposition of a theorem 2. proof 3. major theorem. 4. proof 5. corollary 6. proof 7. tons of hard problems left to homework.I would suggest the author give more examples when showing off those hard theorems. It could be better if the author also provides solutions to (at least) half of the exercises at the end of each section. Remember your readers are not academic conference colleagues, but first-time undergrad students. We learn things from examples!
