What I expected. thank you
Does an decent job at explaining the topics. I mostly use the formulas in the chapter summaries and the tables in the back.
Great website, excellent resource.
This book was necessary for my class.
Example problems in the book can take up several pages showing the majority of steps needed, and can be easily be applied to homework problems in the chapter. Easy read and understandable.
A staple of a book for any engineering discipline.
