Fundamentals of Differential Equations (8th Edition)

I needed this book for my class, but found online notes much more helpful in learning the material than reading the textbook. There are some good problems in the exercises though and the odd answers in the back are more thorough than some other books I've used in the past. Nothing about the book made it really stand out to me though. I have used some mathematics books in the past that really bring the topics to life with pictures and problems that utilize subject material from other courses. This is pretty straightforward with some (almost unavoidable) connections to physics and population growths. It's not bad, it's just not great.

the book itself is very good for those taking a diffy Q class. the problemnlies in that if you have a good professor, the book will almost never be needed as prof will cover all the needed material. also, in my class the homework was optional and as such i opted out of doing it and i never once opened the book. the class is not meant to be a blow off class but it is. if you are taking linear algebra at the same time, instead i would put most of my focus on linear than diffy Q

Good examples are there, just not many of them. If you're taking an online class with this book, I would recommend the solutions manual. If it is in-class with a professor, this book will most likely suffice. Overall, you will learn what you need to with this text.

This was a typical math book and is arranged as one might expect. Helpful examples are found throughout and I encourage any prospective buyers to utilize the example problems as they are quite solid for building a strong fundamental and this book has solid examples.

For those who have to take Differential Equations in a high reputation college where mathematical courses are very rigorous, this is the perfect textbook to study with. I have seen no other textbook where concepts and solved exercices are well explained. Its price is really worth it. I would buy it again if I could. Thanks to this book, I could pass my Differential Equations course and sometimes I like to read it again, even though I already pass this course many many years ago.

The book is a decent, well-written book for class, but for learning on one's own time, I wouldn't recommend it. It's really small and compact, which is great, but not the best for learning mathematics - it tries to keep things at as low of a level as possible for the reader, which actually put me off slightly.

Great book and good condition, pricy though.

This was the correct book but it was in terrible shape. The spine of the book had been taped together which made me feel like I was going to break the book everytime I opened it. Pages were also written on.

Just get your notes online, books are completely overrated.

Will buy again
