Title: Where Were The Editors??
Review: I used this book in a 400-level computer science course (and I did get an A) and found it incredibly frustrating.Most of the meat of the book is well presented and fairly well written.But! There were so many errors and ommisions in chapter-ending questions, diagram figures, and charts/figures that anything otherwise positive about the book was cancelled out.My edition was new as of Spring '98, it and the previous two versions used by students in my class were loaded with errors.The bottom line, what book addresses the subject better? I have to think this is a good buy, just wait for a newer edition and hope that the complex performance/cost analysis questions aren't already doomed by errors.
Is the review positive or negative?
