Summary: Precalculus -
Comment: I'd say it's a rather interesting book, especially concerning the set of problems at the end of each chapter. Covers basics of linear algebra and preparation for calculus, with reasonable amount of problems and examples. Clear prose. Warns about mistakes to avoid.

Brief biographies of prominent mathematicians are introduced in the margin sometimes. Occasionally refers to external sources that you may find interesting.

I'm giving it 5 stars because this book is rather non-traditional. The authors undoubtedly wanted to introduce it as an interesting subject and does cover needed preparatory material for calculus.

Rating: 1
Summary: One of the worst precalculus books ever
Comment: It doesn't even acknowledge derivatives and thus limits or integration, the basis of calculus!

Rating: 2
Summary: Confusing..
Comment: I was not too thrilled with this book. If you're into memorizing math, then it's great. If you want to know WHY things are the way they are, you'll end up relying more on other textbooks, which is what I did in the end. I used it for a college undergrad course.
