Useful Book for Vector Analysis

Vector Calculus (Springer Undergraduate Mathematics)
Price: £30.06

I thought this was a pretty decent book for the Vector Analysis course in year 2. It has all of the formulas used in the course, and inculdes some physical motivation for things like surface integrals which is severly lacking in the lectures being primarily a maths course.
It has some nice proofs and also things which are not covered in the course like tensors which is good for a bit of extra reading as well as having questions with answers at the back which helps. I've always found Springer books to be pretty reliable and this is no exception and although it has quite a few typos it doesn't take anything away from the maths content.
This book doesn't contain anything for the complex analysis part of the course but considering it is only £20 I think it is good value for money, especially given the price of some books in the book shop.
