Negative Positive
Title: terrible.
Review: This book is by far the worst textbook I have ever used. The author does not present ideas logically or coherently. Many explanations, despite being unnecessarily wordy, are vague.I had already covered failure criteria (chapter 4) in another class but still found myself confused due to the author's poor writing style -- thankfully, I still had my old notes.If you are a professor looking for a textbook for your class, please DO NOT use this book. I actually purchased another book on elasticity because this one is so awful.
Is the review positive or negative?
