    May 22, 2004: Schaum's are usually pretty good, but I found this one to be disappointing. Usually, you get a different explanation of things, that sometimes makes more sense. This outline just restates everything in your calculus book. It's not worth buying.

    October 18, 2003: Positive: very through Negatives: Its hard to learn from this book, because it throws a variety of difficult problems at you at once. Instead of explaining a basic problem then giving the student a chance to practice similar problems, it quickly moves on to more difficult problems so you never learn the bascis. To tell you the truth the book is so focused on covering all facets of calculus that most of the problems you encounter in the book will never be on your test, because they are to difficult.
