The book's content repeats throughout chapters and is confusing when concept reflect each other but are different...do not get me started on the math that is not used nowadays. The pictures need to flow better with the reading.
I like this book because it is easy to understand. I am still using it to study for my exam.
good some errors in it but otherwise it does what it is intended for.
excellent condition
Exactly what I needed.
Great book, thanks!
