To anyone who has done MAST20009 Vector Calculus: is it worth buying the Marsden/Tromba textbook? is it helpful at all?

cheers

I think for most maths subjects, textbooks are not really needed for buying.  Visiting the ERC Library and borrowing them when needed would be a better investment.

I agree. I found that the Calc 1+2 Pearson book was good for a couple of years too. Eng Math and Vector Calc will suit it for some bits.
