3.0 out of 5 stars For math people, May 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Differential Equations: Theory, Technique, and Practice (Walter Rudin Student Series in Advanced Mathematics) (Hardcover)
if you plan to learn a little Dif Eq on your own find another book, if it's for a class don't worry about it. this book is definitely difficult to learn from on its own but paired with a good teacher it is a valuable resource. this book is full of poorly explained examples but the plethora of problems makes up for it. basically find a good teacher learn the material do as many problems as you can and the ones you can't do go to your teacher and ask them how... make sure you understand it i am a math tutor and even i had a tough time with this book also i found a few typos just in the first few chapters. so if you are learning on your own try a different text book but this one is full of good problems from which you could benefit from doing.

This review is from: Differential Equations: Theory, Technique, and Practice (Walter Rudin Student Series in Advanced Mathematics) (Hardcover)
This text is expensive and pointless. While it is obviously designed for upper division courses, it lacks concrete examples and a clear thought pattern. Sections do not seem to connect in a comfortable way and they should be much longer. The odd-numbered solutions pages at the end are a joke; most say "proof not shown." Do not buy.
