By William D. Comstock
This book was evidently written in haste with little editing. There are too many errors, grammatical and technical, throughout the book; e.g. the numerical work in 8.2.1 (page 176) is incorrect. Chapter 2, Mathematical Foundations, should be longer, with more examples and exercises for the reader who would be exposed to this material for the first time. There are also errors in this chapter; e.g. on page 43, line 11, "random" should be "prime".
