Precalculus: A Prelude to Calculus

Fine book if you already know Precalculus
After I passed Precalculus, I decided to buy this book for continued practice; however, I came across a few worked out examples in this book that baffled me a bit and took a couple minutes to work out what steps were skipped in the examples. It is my opinion that for the price I paid for this book, it should be dispelling confusion rather than compounding them; therefore, I can quite comfortably say I feel immensely dissatisfied with this purchase.

Good
came in good condition. The book itself doesn't explain concepts as good as other books I've used. But, I like how they have the answers after every section so its easier to check and correct your work.

The people working there are super nice and reply me back quickly if I were to have a question. The sad thing was just that I wish it could of ship faster and the textbook was fully spill with water. I don't mind it since it's reusable but still wish it have a better quality.

Prelude: to precalculus
The written portions of the book are not very clear and I wound up using a lot of outside resources just to understand the basic concepts being presented. The worked out solutions for problems frequently skipped steps and leaves you wondering how they derived their answer without full explanation.

It's ok, could be better
PROS:-provides a clear explanation on the conceptsCONS:-does not provide answers to all of the questions, it only provides answers to odd number questions (listed as "exercises" questions)-also does not provide answers to any of the harder section of questions (listed as "problems" questions)-the questions are too easy-some of the question's answers' dos not provide a clear explanation of how they got the answer
