Summary: just my opinion.....
Comment: .... and I have little to compare this book to. Relatively good, tho not perfect. On page 147, they show how to derive the lowest common denominator, go thru the steps, but appear to skip one detail-which isnt at all obvious.
I was able to consult a library book I had & get a decent explanation. Yes, this text had the correct answer, but didnt show u one of the steps.
Then they go on to show how to do the same lowest common denominator for adding a bunch of equations. At the end, they say u cant use certain values, but the finished equation gives u no hint as to why not.
This book often refers to "MAPLE", a software program that rearranges equations for u. Its ok if u dont have the software, the learning duznt hinge on it. And its nice to know that there is such software.
Overall, being very nearly done w/ the book, I think its pretty good. I took 10 math books out of the library. Why? Trying to learn game programming, and I knew my math was weak. Wasnt sure what the difference between algebra & geometry was any more, they were a hopeless mix of memories in my mind. Eventually, I'll need to break down & buy something, for now, I'm deciding based on study of free library books.
I think u'd be Ok w/ this book. I only wrote a review cuz no one else has written anything. I say, got to the library & then later, decide which book to buy for yer own.
