This text was written with a certain pedagogical approach in mind, and is an excellent archtype of that approach. It emphasizes the graphical and numerical techniques along side of the analytic ones. It's pretty awful as a class textbook, though... the examples tend to be interesting but irrelevant, and it's entirely possible to come away without the expected computational skills. (
