Math is Hard

[Dennis Shah · Rating 2 out of 5]

I am still waiting for a math textbook that doesn’t suck.

[Jack · Rating 1 out of 5]

The part where the author repeatedly writes the n-word seemed a bit offensive, and the math is fucking hard as shit.

[Eòin McCartan · Rating 1 out of 5]

Says to check the companion site for the cumulative review tests, yet when I went there, there were none to see. Not only that, but it doesn't have the 5th edition resources there either.
