Summary: Best differential equations book I've used!
Comment: This book's clear writing style, fantastic use of illustrations and examples, and good chapter organization make it the best differential equations book I've used.

I can understand a first time student might have problems with this book. The text isn't perfect. It requires a professor to help guide the student along. But one shouldn't expect to learn a rich and demanding subject like differential equations alone.

Rating: 1
Summary: A warning to potential students
Comment: I too have found that this book is full of 'issues' that make learning ODEs not only a chore, but next to impossible. The problems presented in the book make little sense to anyone except for the profs. If you are planning on teaching an ODE course with this book, I beg you to reconsider your choice of books for the sake of your students.

Rating: 1
Summary: This book is a liability for universities
Comment: This book is undeniably the worst math book I have ever used. While the authors and student editors are undoubtedly more comfortable with the subject matter and are intelligent people, I found the text to be uncomprehensible by people that didn't already understand the material.

If you are a student in an ODE course, I would recommend using another text. You may sleep better.
