Product Description
These authors have created a book to really help students visualize mathematics for better comprehension. By creating algebraic visual side-by-sides to solve various problems in the examples, the authors show students the relationship of the algebraic solution with the visual, often graphical, solution. In addition, the authors have added a variety of new tools to help students better use the book for maximum effectiveness to not only pass the course, but truly understand the material.

5 out of 5 stars Great book and self-explanatory   December 31, 2007

I used this book for an online class with little to no teacher support and was able to make it all the way through with an A. The examples are great and the descriptions easy to understand. This is a wonderful textbook.

Love the amount of real world applications that come with this book. This book is precise and to the point. Book is designed to go at a fast pace, if you were to work out problems in this book on a daily basis for a couple hours , you would finish the book with ease in about 2 and a half weeks. This book is the easiest read I have encountered as far as math books go. Im definitely sticking with these authors as far as the rest of my math courses go. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone. If you are planning to go into calculus, I would advise that you buy the precalc book from the same authors since it has everything in the college algebra book plus trigonometry.


5 out of 5 stars You do not have to look any further...   January 8, 2009

This book will teach you all school algebra. This is one of the smartest books on the market. Explanations are very easy to understand, plenty of examples, problems provided will take you from very easy to quite difficult level in very gradual way. Unlike other math books authors of this one did not try to show how smart they are but really concentrated on typical student needs. Combine this book with Schaum's Outline book for thousands of more supplementary problems and you do not have to go to school at all.

It was so easy to order this book off of Amazon.com. It arrived in the mail in no time at all. The price was right. It is in excellent shape for a used book. It doesn't even look used. I will plan on ordering more books next semester from Amazon, it's a great way to save money!

This is a good textbook on college algebra. The examples that it provides for the problems in each section are easy to follow and understand.
