A pretty decent math book, but I only bought it because my school uses it and I wanted an extra copy to keep at home so I didn't have to lug it back and fourth w/ 8,000 other books a day. But it is lightweight, thanks to its lack of unnecessary graphics, and according to my math teachers, it's packed with problems, including extra practice. It has a good amount of examples.It also has a few random biographies of mathematicians and scientists that are interesting, but mostly pointless, and have little correlations to the sections. There are also small sections about math careers. Additionally, there are computer exercises for students with programming experience. Answers to odd problems are in the back, which is a major plus. ~A. Brown

book arrived in a timely fashion and works for me, even though the condition is worn

The front page of the book is full of obscene and foul language. The book was badly trashed and was a school book that has school names all over it.
It is extremely irresponsible for the seller to sell the book for a high price but did not do something about the foul language that was written all over the book. Profit making is more important than professionalism I guess!Furthermore the seller did not even attempt to contact me after my initial complaint THREE weeks ago!

I was very pleased with the speed in which the item was delivered.The book was in perfect condition and my son needed it a.s.a.p.
