I can only compare it with Marsden and Tromba's book as I have little experience with other book on Vector Calculus of this type (although I have experience with books like Schey's "Div, Grad, Curl and All That"). Highly recommended text on vector calculus.more I plan on going further with this textbook than what was covered in our course. Colley's approach asks fewer qualitative questions but that is covered extensively in the copious examples. Hughes Hallett often wast much of the students time with the qualitative question of what is going on, without giving the student the tools to properly explore those questions. The book, while challenging, is also straightforward. To other students in my class this book would likely be intimidating to them at my level but I found it much better allowing me to properly challenge myself and prepare myself for what my instructor would throw at me. The theorems are more rigorous, requiring linear algebra, and I appreciated that. The explanations are thorough and three times longer with diagrams that are much more illustrative. To other students in my class this book would likely be intimidating to them at my level but I found it much better allowing me to properly challenge myself and prepare myself for what my instructor would throw at me I used this book as a supplement for the vector calculus textbook (Hughes Hallett) used at my school.
