"My relationship with this book is very much in the love-hate category.
The bad:
The problems in the text are among the most difficult I've ever encountered. They're classified by difficulty A, B, & C, but even the A problems are often challenging and the C problems are practically impossible to understand--it's no surprise that the solutions manual to this text is one of the most sought-after items in the econ grad student community. I had one of these, and am ashamed to admit that, even with its help, many of the C problems were still complete mysteries to me.
The notation used throughout the text gets increasingly complicated as the book becomes more and more technical in nature.
Constant use of such phrases as "It's straightforward to see that..." and "And the result follows immediately", when the results don't follow immediately and it's not straightforward to see anything!
The good:
This book has basically everything under the sun that a graduate student in microeconomics could ever possibly want to know. No book is more comprehensive in scope--both breadth and depth are impressive."
