5-0 out of 5 stars Good Mathematics Book
This book makes this branch of Mathematics fun. It reads well too. I understand many of the concepts because the presentation is well constructed. Good reading.

5-0 out of 5 stars A good book
I like this book and use it for teaching my students. As a teacher, you have the opportunity to select similar problems for class activity and homework assignment. Also, you can find not only simple and middle-level problems but also high-level problems to provide a good source for active students. Unfortunately, the author uses the letters "F" and "T" in the truth tables instead of much easier and perspective "0" and "1", which correspond to the real needs, e.g., in computer science. That's the most essential lack, which I've found by this time.

4-0 out of 5 stars This book is interesting
I like the exclamations and the concepts/problem solving this book teaches.Maybe I am being swayed by the subject because I enjoy it, however, in comparison to other math books, this one livens it up and is a higher then the average mathematics book. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive book for General Topology
This is the text that my first graduate level topology class is using.Over all I find it very well written.The author uses good examples for motivation and explaination of the topics he covers.The exercises are also well thought out and instructive.They're challenging enough to make you really learn the material, but not so hard as to sway the only average mathematician from the subject.I highly recommend this book, even if it's not for your class.It'll be a welcome reference book to add to your math text collection!

4-0 out of 5 stars Good standard introduction to topology, useful book for textbook, self-study, or reference
This book is pretty much a standard.It has a number of strong points.It is self-contained relative to students even at a fairly elementary level.There are a lot of exercises, and they are appropriate.And, the book is very comprehensive and thorough, covering a lot of material and covering it in good depth.Most of the material is exceptionally easy to read.
5-0 out of 5 stars very clear introduction

2-0 out of 5 stars Notfor Dummies
Now if I were a dummy, and in many ways I am, I would be furious with this book.It doesn't mention until page 4 that the author assumes you've already had a year of algebra.What if I hadn't?What if I was picking up this book because I wanted to learn algebra from scratch?Most anyone would naturally assume that's what this book is for.But right away you'd be lost.Even the "fun facts" would make me heave this thing out the window.Info about "three-term quadratic equations" is a fun fact?Not if you're a compleat dummy and you haven't the foggiest what this woman is talking about.The 2 stars are generous.It's not too bad for an overview of something you already know and merely want to to remember.Thank my stars I do know algebra, but damn...dummies beware.

1-0 out of 5 stars What????
This book is not for beginners. It assumes you've had at least a year of algebra education.

Don't be dissuaded by reviewers who haven't read this book!

I only have the fifth edition of this book, but it is probably similar to this edition. I used this book, when I was teaching statistics many years ago. The book is very clear and it explains each statistical concept very thoroughly. 5-0 out of 5 stars A Very Helpful Book
This is a definately worthwhile learning tool which can aid anyone who is attempting to tackle statistics for the first time.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome book for TS
If you are thinking of mastering TS this is the book to start with. Do not get intimidated however with all the symbols and notations, the author does a pretty good job explaining each and every equation. A seperate book is needed for application eg RATs handbook by Enders.

4-0 out of 5 stars A review of Time Series Analysis
The book provides a good overview of the analysis of time series and it also gives a good treatise of the economitric background of the use of estimation methods.

5-0 out of 5 stars The most careful ecmtx textbook I know
As you may guess from the title, I loved Hamilton's book. I must definitely disagree with all those who find it too technical. Rather on the contrary, I would say. Admittedly, entire pages with greek letters look intimidating at first glance. But what Hamilton actually does is making a huge effort (unlike most of his competitors) to actually explain the details of the derivations, thereby helping the reader a lot. You'll learn to appreciate this a lot by the time you start developing sth. on your own rather than simply applying existing techniques.

4-0 out of 5 stars Very good learning version
This affordable version of SPSS allows students to learn how to use SPSS without investing a large amount of money on the full version ($600 or so).This version is limited in the number of variables and cases it can store, so students looking to perform serious analysis would be better off to purchase the SPSS Graduate Pack.

1-0 out of 5 stars Not for graduate students
Unfortunately I didn't see the part about the student version being limited to 50 variables and 1500 cases until I'd bought it.The class I'm taking uses far more variables than that.I am wiser now.

5-0 out of 5 stars Review of Book that i bought.
Partial Differential Equations (Graduate Studies in Mathematics, V. 19) GSM/19 (Graduate Studies in Mathematics)
5-0 out of 5 stars The best book for an introduction to PDE's for a graduated student
If you're looking for a book to learn PDE's at a basic level, please don't buy this book. In the other hand, if you have already worked on this subject it's not surprising why the book doesn't include some topics or techniques. The appendix is for remembering basic facts while you are reading, so if you don't acknowledge this subjects, you have to study them before (you can't ask a book to have an appendix that covers all the related theories you need).There are several books which cover very well the classical theory and the linear cases in the weak sense. As one of the reviews says, this is an excellent book for a GRADUATED COURSE so it is assumed you have a basic background on the subject and you know what you should know about other subjects such as analysis. The book has the basic tools forTHE NON-LINEAR CASES which can't be seen in a basic course. If you don't believe me, try to find a book which cover the same content in such an easy way.

5-0 out of 5 stars This book opened a new world for me
After several bad lectures I had already almost given up on PDE. But when I got this book into my hands, I was immediately drawn into the subject and couldn't put it down until I finished it completely. After less than a month I felt how a new world had opened up to me, and I can since feel its effect when I go to lectures.

1-0 out of 5 stars Great reference, Bad textbook
This is actually a very good book to read - what they cover, they cover in depth, building each concept up from elementary concepts so you can always see how they got from point A to point B.The authors present mathematical proofs of essentially every assertion (although, as is typical of "discrete math" proofs, the proofs can sometimes be a tad on the silly side as they sometimes just restate whatever they're trying to prove - blame academia).The algorithms are all presented in a language-agnostic pseudocode which highlights the essentials of the algorithm itself without burdening the reader with language idiosyncracies.Plus, if you want something more concrete, the latest edition comes with a CD-ROM including all the algorithms implemented in Java!
4-0 out of 5 stars A great reference
This book is not for the casual reader.If the contents seems confusing at times it is because there are hard problems being analyzed.Any book on algorithms that is not confusing at times is probably not discussing any interesting algorithms.While quite academic, this book is also relevant to any engineer who needs to design/optimize a non-trivial algorithm.It's also one of those books that one can open up to any random page and start reading.Sometimes when I get coders-block, this is just the thing to break me out of it.This book is heavy, expensive and well worth its weight and price.

5-0 out of 5 stars Important Book
This is an excellent book. Well written, easy to understand, precise, good problems, excellent coverage of the basics. This book can provide an excellent foundation in computer science.

1-0 out of 5 stars This book is the pits
I am by no means a math wizard.I am, however, able to learn things on my own fairly well.This book makes that nearly impossible though.This book gives very few examples, and the few that they do give rarely give any clues to what needs to be done to solve the equations.It also fails to really teach anything.It's by no means for a student that is going to be going through an online course where they won't be interfacing with an instructor.I would not have enrolled into the course for online schooling if I had know this books was going to be this terrible.I strongly don't recommend this book!!!

1-0 out of 5 stars Sadly disappointed
This text is a pathetic excuse for educational material.It gives meager examples and many are not even applicable to the chapter exercises.By far this is the poorest written text I have encountered in three years of college.

5-0 out of 5 stars Art of math?
If you read the other reviews of this book, you might end up thinking, "Are they talking about a math book, or a piece of art?"It might well be both.This book ended up in my hands as the result of a book drive at the office where I work (staff donate books, I sell them, proceeds go to a charitable fund).I ended up buying it.I'm 45, and I'm a psychologist; algebra is not something I use on a regular basis.This book is just so well-made (illustrated, organized, well-explained, comprehensive, rational, realistic), that I could not just let it go by.It made me want to take a math class.

5-0 out of 5 stars The very best.
This book is perfect. It explains every problem, and unlike most Algebra courese, it prepares you for whats coming. Books like the MaGraw Hill Algebra books just give you a problem and expect you to know how to solve it. Margret L Lial works you up to it, so when you get to the big equations you will actually know how to do them.
5-0 out of 5 stars Beginning Algebra, Ninth Edition by Margaret L. Lial
This Beginning Algebra book by Lial is, without a doubt, the best elementary Algebra book I have had the pleasure to use.As a tutor of middle school through college level, I have used several Algebra texts from the bigger textbook companies to several homeschool favorites.This text builds logically and has clear and accurate explanations.Concepts that should be learned by heart and rote are highlighted.There is also a plethora of practical application problems which, afterall, is what math is all about - one needs to be able to apply and use the concepts in everyday and career situations. In short, it is easily understood by the self-taught, as well as a delight to use in a teaching situation.There is ample drill and practice to solidify concepts and routines.I'm sticking with this one. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Perfect book to reintroduce algebra
I used this book in my first back-to-college algebra class, and it is a great book. Easy to understand explanations and step-by-step instructions made algebra way easier than I remembered! Please note: the companion solutions manual has many wrong answers. The book itself, however, is great. If your class is using this book, you will do well.

5-0 out of 5 stars best math text I have ever used
I wish he had written all of my text books.Everything is clearly laid out with examples that are broken down into small steps to make understanding even clearer.

3-0 out of 5 stars good as primer
It is readable and has an enjoyable way of teaching. It is a mix of the basics concepts and results, but not quite well organized regarding the logical flow of a math presentation. Anyway, I recommend it. As the next book for a beginner (or even the first) I recommend Barboianu's book "Understanding and Calculating the Odds".

4-0 out of 5 stars Helped me pass my waiver exam
Since I'm starting graduate school, I needed to take a statistics exam in order to avoid taking a statistics prerequisite class.While I used to know much of this information, I completely forgot about eighty percent of it and I pretty much needed to learn from scratch.This book was great.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Great Book to Study Multivariable Calculus!
I'm a math major and it was my first course that I took to meet the math requirements. I had assignments almost daily but we didn't go over the assignments deeply in the class. Therefore, I had to self-studied a lot and I actually got more help from the Student Solution Manual of the book. This book is very concise to read as well. I always think that if I paid more attention in this text seriously, I would do better in the class. I suggest to buy the solution manual book together.

5-0 out of 5 stars Superlative
This book covers all the standard vector calculus material. What sets it apart is the pedagogic skill of the author. It is very carefully written and motivated, with clear worked examples for each new concept. A student could work through this book independently.
1-0 out of 5 stars INCOMPREHENSIBLE!!!
Hope and pray that your professor is awesome, because the explanations in this book are absolutely incomprehensible. Also, some of the hints in the exercises are ridiculous, such as "Be careful when you do this" and "Think carefully"!!! Is the author implicitly saying that the rest of the problems can be done while being careless, or what?
