Pretty Good Book..... October 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a high school junior and I used this for my calculus II class for Fall 2008 at my local community college as my school does not offer AP Calculus BC. So far, so good, I have no problems with it, the examples are a bit weak though as they pail in comparison to the level of difficulty in some of the exercises. However, as my teacher follows the format of the book directly, (Ch. 7-12) I can learn directly from the book as well as from my teacher, so the book is a good supplement. Since its a calculus II class, I cant comment on Ch 1-6, but I'll assume they're acceptable. We're only about 1/5 through the semester though, so I don't know how the rest of the book is, but the ample examples for integration by parts and the entire chapter on inverse functions are really well organized and simple to read, learn, and understand. Hopefully Ch 9-12 are as good as 7 and 8 so the semester goes by smoothly.

I AM BOOKLESS B/C OF THIS SELLER. I had to barrow the text book for my Cal. III class from my teacher because I never got my own book. I e-mailed the seller and he said that he sent it and would check in on it. I have been trying to get a hold of him after his e-mail and have not been able to. If he was tring to make good with me I did not know about. I do not know if anything is happening.
NOT new September 28, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
I ordered this book new from Amazon and was expecting it to be, in fact, in new condition. However, I was disappointed. The binding was worn away on the front cover as if someone had picked away at it. There are now ugly ridges on the front cover. The rest of the book is in great condition, but I was not expecting there to be any damage. The only reason I can't return it is that I need to use it.
