I like Reed--been using it for years; have tried almost all the others
at least once and keep coming back.
Very high in readability for students.
Well organized.
Maybe not as comprehensive as some texts but that leaves me the
option of adding some "special topics" lectures for the last 2 weeks
that allows students some freedom in suggesting topics in addition
to ones I like to add--gives them some power over what they learn.
