My experience with this company was absolutely terrible. I purchased the book November 25th and paid an extra $10 for 3-5 day shipping. On December 1st, I reached out to the company both by email and phone expressing that I did not receive a shipping confirmation and would like to cancel the order. Because the book took too long, I had to purchase the ebook to complete my classwork. After going back and forth with this company, I was told I could not cancel the item because it was already shipped. I asked to cancel the order on December 1st, and the company SHIPPED the order against my wishes on December 6th. Which I can prove with the Fedex tracking log. When the book arrived on December 8th (13 days later), I was told I cannot return the item. They are stating that I can not return the unopened item that is in the original box because of policy reasons. Now I have two copies (the ebook and print) when I only need one. ANY PROFESSOR/ COLLEGE INTERESTED IN USING THIS PUBLISHER SHOULD AVOID IT AT ALL COSTS! ANY STUDENT WHO NEEDS THIS BOOK, AVOID IF POSSIBLE. IF YOU CAN'T, ORDER THE ITEM FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Ordered a book through BookDepository.com from this publisher - book called "Journey from Natural Numbers to Complex Numbers" - This book has arrived (as have others) - this is brilliant book - although for its size it is expensive- but it is brilliantly written - my compliments to the authors Nita Shah and Vishnuprasad Thakkar - it is so hard to find a well thought out maths book - other maths authors should take note. My congratulations to the Publishers for publishing these authors. Andy Frost

I ordered an e-book (order #634521) and was expecting to receive a PDF I could use freely like at springer.com. However, in order to view my book online, I was forced to create an additional account at bookshelf.vitalsource.com (apart from the CRC account!). You can only read the book offline, if you install the "bookshelf app". I was not able to extract a PDF out of the "bookshelf app". A horrible restrictive process! I requested my money back from CRC and in the meantime will re-buy the book via mayersche.com, because I need it quickly as PDF. I am really disappointed about CRC Press.
