1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money for a voluntary root canal!, October 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Calculus, Student Solutions Manual: Single Variable (Paperback)

This book is so pathetically minimal that I award it...1/10 of a star. (It may be useful in starting a fire in your fireplace...maybe). DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS SOLUTION MANUAL! It only includes about every other odd solution, and most of the time, it shows just the (often incorrect) answer. The worst part is, that same answer is usually in the back of the textbook! It is definitely not worth even $5.00, so save your money!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the money, July 25, 2010

This review is from: Student Solutions Manual to accompany Calculus (Paperback)

I purchased this book hoping to get more in depth explanations to the answers to the problems in the main text book, but in the end get very little from it. For some, like me, calculus is a difficult subject and any extra help can go a long ways. This student solutions manual only includes answers to EVER OTHER ODD problem. Not every odd, not every other, only every other odd (i.e. 1, 5, 9, etc.) I find the "hard" problems in the main text are frequently NOT the ones the solutions manual shows. The few problems from each section that are actually covered do show most of the intermediate steps between the original problem and the final solution in the scope of the section/chapter. Also, there is no explanation on what is being done in each step; the solution from each major step is shown with no information about how that step (or solution) was achieved. In the end the price simply is not worth paying for only a very small subset of solutions.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother, October 3, 2008

Janine White (Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Calculus: Student Solutions Manual (Paperback)

This manual has very few questions worked out. I find it much more helpful to my learning to check my answers in the back of the textbook and work them out again if they are wrong. Don't bother to buy this.
