A lifesaver, but with some effort July 7, 2008
Like many other textbooks with new editions, the problems from the 6th edition manual are identical to those in the current 7th edition - very handy. Irregardless of the quality of the accompanying textbook*, this manual can be extremely helpful in deciphering the often convoluted and difficult problems presented by Solymar (some of which are solved more through mathematical manipulation than knowledge of the material, hence requiring a nudge in the proper direction). Sometimes the tricks and twists seem pulled out of thin air, but if that's what it takes to solve problems there's not much else to do. All the solutions make sense in the end, with varying amounts of brain probing to understand them.
*It's rubbish as far as teaching concepts [on its own] goes, but in the hand of a good teacher can be a good tool.
