In my opinion this is one of the strong areas for Pagano. I like how he steps students through the problem process, this is very valuable to students. I would like to see him add common errors or things to watch out for as he works the problems through, so often I find students make the same errors (within the class and from year to year). Ronald A. Craig, University of Pennsylvania

It's a plain jane textbook that's extremely clear. It covers things very thoroughly so that you can easily pick and chose what you want to use. It's well written and easy for students to understand. It doesn't skimp on the math, but provides enough explanations so that people can follow what goes on. It has a ton of examples that are very useful. David R. Dunaetz, Azusa Pacific University Yes, I have used Pagano's text in its different editions for many years primarily because the writing style is accessible and appropriate for students and the graphics illustrate the concepts well.
