Partivles Choose a language for shopping. I also like the emphasis on probability. It also contains an integrated set of problems, with solutions to selected problems at the end of the book. Chapters give you only basic information, and you have to work out exercises in the end of the chapter to get the details. Ideally, for a first course, I prefer a systematic approach, leaving psrticles intuitive stuff only when it’s justified. Product details File Size: Customers who bought this item also bought.
