Summary: TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY
Comment: I HAD TO BUY THIS BOOK FOR MY STRUCTURE CLASS IN AEROSPACE ENGINEERING; PAYING SO MUCH FOR SO LITTLE REALLY AGGRAVATED ME. THIS BOOK HAS NO CONTENT, THERE IS NO APPLICATION TO REAL LIFE PROBLEMS, IT IS PURE GARBAGE. THE TEACHER FOLLOWED EXACTLY THIS TEXTBOOK FOR HIS CLASS; I DON'T KNOW MORE ABOUT AIRCRAFT STRUCTURES THAN I DID BEFORE TAKING THAT CLASS. 1 STAR IS WAY TOO MUCH!!! STAY AWAY FROM IT!!!!!!!!

Summary: Worst Book Ever!!
Comment: I am an aerospace engineering student that has to use this book for my structures class. This is by far the worst book I have ever used in my entire college career. The author derives several complicated formulas without hardly any explanation, and makes it difficult to understand the concepts. There are very very few examples to look at to understand the concepts. Worst book ever, do not buy this book!!!

Summary: Is it possible to give 0 stars?
Comment: Wow..... It's shocking that a book this poor could actually reach publication.

This book appears to consist of a collection of the author's teaching notes. Highly mathematical (fine), but utterly lacking in the "what this formula means in the real world" department. Aren't we as students trying to understand where all the math is leading us?

Most annoying of all, throughout the book the author uses the following: "It is easy to prove that..." Well, I'm sure it is easy for him to prove it. He's the f'ing teacher. But for us, the students, it's NOT trivial, nor should it be treated as such.

I concur with the other review. Stay as far away from this text as possible.
