Summary: good concept but book falls short
Comment: This book sounds like a great idea, and to a student considering whether to get this or a more traditional book, I would recommend a book like The Complete Idiot's Guide to Calculus by W. Michael Kelley.
You will probably have plenty of problems at your disposal in a calc class, so ones from Schaums don't necessarily correlate to what the professor is teaching. Furthermore there are many steps, but not always enough, and no explanations. I think it would be better to have 1000 problems with discussion rather then 3000 crammed in tiny print with bad formatting. That's the final qualm with this book, it is printed on poor quality paper and the ink is thick and the print is small and really crammed in there. Not what you need when there are so many sub and super scripts.

Summary: Recommend for Students Needing Help - No Brainer
Comment: The best way to learn calculus is to do problems. I was a professor for 8 years and it was a technique that I learned as a student at MIT and later passed on to my students.
Do these problems to improve your scores on tests or just to pass if you are having a problem. To succeed in calculus do problems, problems, and more problems. Here is a book with 3000 problems. That will keep the student busy.
Recommend buy. It is cheap and effective.
