Unfortunately, I don't feel a review is going to make much of a difference to the people most in need of heeding it, but I will say my piece anyway.
The book feels disorganized. Like a rough draft before someone points out all the clarity issues. Equation derivations were poorly discussed, variables were often times skipped over so defining them in equations as very difficult, and topics were often times to short to extract the necessary information. I busted my ass at ##### and graduated two semesters early; this was my least favorite class. The inability of the teacher to effectively present the material should not reflect on the book, but it does when you are so heavily reliant on the book for knowledge. I have had other professors that needed to take classes on "teaching" - yes, there is a reason a person can get a doctorate in "education" - but I have never had a class where both the professor and book failed me so terribly. The students taught each other the material.
If you are buying this for class, I am sorry. If you are buying this a resource, look elsewhere. There has to be something better.
(As an aside, I feel I should mention I not only graduated early, but I am currently employed as a civil engineering intern working in a waste water department that deals directly with the material covered in this book.)
