5 out of 5 stars Good starting place   September 16, 2000
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I found this book to be a good beginning point for mathmatical studies. Having been a life long "problem math student" this book has made great inroads into my otherwise bleak mathmatical future. It starts at the most basic aspects of Algebra, Geometry, and polynomials finishing up in radical equations.

From the student point of view, I have to say I have enjoyed this book far more than the previous 2 I have had the displeasure of having for a textbook, and I would reccomend it to others for ease of use, learning, and economy of time.

When I tried searching for the book under ISBN, reply NO MATCHES. Searched again, using ISBN and title, reply NO MATCHES. Searched again, using ISBN, title and author, reply NO MATCHES. Now, I knew the ISBN I was entering was correct, but instead of a reply like; "NOT IN STOCK," kept kicking out NO MATCHES. Then I did the search of the book using just the title, the vendor or site does not allow a detailed description other than the name of the book. There is no reference to ISBN to aide with correlating the title search you entered and the exact book you're actually searching for? Still unsure if I had actually retrieved the book I needed, decided to order. Of course when I received the book it was not the one I was looking for. Called the vendor and they tried to state that, that was the book I had ordered. My reply was, if all that's kicked out is just the title, during your search without a coorelating ISBN your search is limited, and therefore you're still left with some reservations if whether or not you've actually gotten an exact hit, without a second verification like inputting the ISBN. My suggestion to you would be to change your responses to reflect that "you do not have the item on stock" and change the default on the search to allow advanced searches with title, ISBN and/or author, and not just use the title.

One and only good thing you're guaranteed 100% money back within 7 days of receipt of book and/or item, now that's just for the item, but the customer eats the cost of shipping both ways. I don't agree with that aspect of the return policy.

T. Do
Even though I received this textbook quite fast (within a week), the book condition is quite poor. Some of the pages sticks to each other. The cover is bent. Found a page with profanity written with pen.
