This book could be good if a great professor was teaching with it. I had the misfortune of having another poor University of California, San Diego professor which made the book a priority to read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless book, March 24, 2003
By 
dusty Rolla (topeka, ks United States) - See all my reviews
Difficult to follow and no solutions.... examples are few and far between.... By far the most worthless chemical engineering book I've used... only one I'm sure I'll sell at the end of the semester.... the author is incomplete... I found few discussions interesting... there's got to be better out there?!
