As far as text books go, it's an ok one. It's easy to read and follow, although I feel like they missed explaining some of the mathematical formulas in the later chapters and it made solving the chapter problems a little difficult. Over all it's a decent text book, just make sure your instructor is clear on how to solve the problems.
