I give this text an A. I have looked at numerous other texts for the MAT 115 course, but none have been better suited than this book, in my opinion, to the Mathematical Modeling course., I have also asked my students for their opinions on the textbook, and I heard the following things: They really like that the definitions and formulas they will need are highlighted in blue. They also said that mathematics textbooks either make the sections impossible to follow on your own, or so easy to follow on your own that you feel you do not need to attend class, so they stop going. They felt this textbook was right in the middle. They said they need to come to my lecture because it helps them to understand exactly what the examples are doing in the book, but they wouldn't be able to follow completely on their own. They like the way the book works directly with lecture and vise versa.
