Jann in TX, what about Jacob's 2d ed?


Recommended Posts

I have a copy of this and I have heard people say this is a better book. What do you think? Do you need a solutions manual for it?

 

Oops! I guess I should have added that this is for geometry.

You get the answers--just not the worked out 'HOW' part.

 

The second edition does offer more practical practice--but it is still a 'learning style' issue--same as with other non-traditional texts (like Saxon). The lack of worked out solutions is a big deterrent to many because Jacobs teaches HIS own logic--and he does not always explain things--he is more of a guide--again it is a learning style thing.
