Why do maths textbooks never explain how to read the equations? I've tried reading a few and before you know it there'll be some matrix stuff in, integrations or whatever and no explanation of how to read them in normal English like a maths teacher does.
They all seem to assume you're still at school rather than it being decades since you last had to read them. Even using Greek symbols - WRITE THEM OUT. Jeez, it's so elitist.
