Title: minimal interesting mathematics, annoying prose
Review: I must agree with half the others who've reviewed this book here. The author's overly verbose style did not help me to understand any ideas, but instead sent me running to the dictionary. I'll gladly reread a sentence or equation in a math textbook a few times to understand it, but I don't like to read other genres in that way.I found a few interesting mathematical ideas within, but I would have been happiest if someone else had read and summarized this book for me.I was a math major if that adds perspective to my review.
Is the review positive or negative?
