3.0 out of 5 stars Very good and very annoying, July 17, 2011

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Advanced Calculus, Third Edition (Schaum's Outline Series) (Paperback)

I purchased this item in order to review material that I had studied years ago in college. The topics are covered very well and deserve five stars. However, there are an unbelievable number of typographical errors on almost every page in this edition. This can only be due to very poor editing. These errors are very annoying to someone, like me, who is already familiar with the material. They must be very confusing to someone who is trying to learn this material for the first time.
