5 comments about Calculus With Analytic Geometry, Alternate.

1. This is no doubt the best textbook I have ever owned in any subject. I've never been able to actually read through a math text untill this book came along. The analytic graphs are colorful (and the 3-D generated ones are simply astounding) which is totally different from the dull, dreary, and nightmarish math texts from my past. This math book is unlike any other I have seen before -- in a class of its own. There are plenty of examples, charts, and many many exercises(some especially challenging). I went through Calculus I and have taught myself Calc II within a matter of weeks. Highly recommended.



2. The best book about Calculus I ever seen. Read it and you will know all about you need to love mathematics.



3. First things first: If there was a ten star rating it would apply
   to this book. Secondly, I found these authors through another of
   their books, "Precalculus With Limits - A Graphing Approach". That book was just as well written. Truth be told, I would buy any of their books, sight unseen. They are a students
   teacher and a teachers teacher. They don't sacrifice rigor, nor do they forget the mathematical maturity of their student audience. Using their books alone, and self-study (no classes,
   tutors, or the intellectual diet pill category of "Calculus Made
   Simple" or "Calculus The Easy Way" silver bullets I filled a forty year gap in math studies in 1-1/2 years to the point of
   acing the AP Calculus and AP Physics Exams. Knowing calculus prior to beginning physics with calculus is an absolute necessity. I am no genuis. I do not have exceptional ability. I simply had the advantage of two textbooks written by teachers who
   really care and take a mentoring approach to writing. All of this
   has really been a long-winded way of saying that with this book
   and a healthy dose of strong motivation and perserverance you will succeed in your calculus courses.



4. My son is currently at Harvard where he is taking Calculus II. He called home, requesting we forward his Larson textbook that he used for AP Calc in high school. It helped him tremendously with concepts he just wasn't getting at one of the top schools in the nation--and he has shared this textbook with his professor at Harvard!
   
   Kudos to the author of this wonderfully written book.



5. Exactly as I said in the title. We completed Calculus 1, 2 and 3 on this. Great for beginners.

1 comments about Vector Measures (Mathematical Surveys, Number 15).

1. Vector Measures is the best book on this subject! The general treatment is very nice...this book is perfect if you know the book "Linear Operators, vol I" of Dunford and Schwartz.

1 comments about Electric Circuit Analysis.

1. I have never reviewed the books I've purchased before, but I am so impressed with this one that I had to submit this review.
   
   This author walks you completely through all the topics of electric circuit analysis as if he were sitting alongside you. There are complete, detailed schematics and drawings, hundreds of worked out examples leaving nothing to imagine.
   
   The real test for me was his coverage of three-phase power. Absolutely fantastic. I've never seen clearer explanations.
   
   I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants detailed, clearly worked out example problems and thorough explanations with hundreds of sample problems with more than just odd numbered or even numbered answers.
   
   I consider this a MUST HAVE!

1. Good concise distillation of the basics. Reviews basic algebra, sets, permutations and combinations, limits, derivatives, integrals, and matrix algebra. Good for a refresher, for introduction, or for filling in gaps in one's basic knowledge. Won't make you a Ph.D. mathematician, but it doesn't pull punches. It's all stated here very simply: terms, equations, and examples. No fluff. Nice slim portable volume. Weighs less than a good sandwich.
