Algebra and Trigonometry (3rd Edition)

Robert F. Blitzer

Prentice Hall, 2006

Great Math Textbook
I used this book for an accelerated Algebra/Trig class at the college level. I found this book to be one the best math books I have ever encountered. When examples are given in the text it goes step by step and for most, explanations of what is being done. Other ...

Trigonometry (9th Edition)
Margaret L. Lial, John Hornsby, ...

Addison Wesley, 2008

Over the years, the text has been shaped and adapted to meet the changing needs of both students and educators. As always, special care was taken to respond to the specific suggestions of users and reviewers through enhanced discussions, new and updated examples and exercises, helpful features, and an extensive package of supplements and study ...

Precalculus

Robert F. Blitzer

Prentice Hall, 2006

Excellent!
I used this book instead of listening to the teacher's lectures and I did really great in the class! This is a great book to use in class and study form it alone!

Algebra and Trigonometry

Michael Sullivan

Prentice Hall, 2007

This is an excellent book - period
I am 55 years old and promised myself that when I became financially able I would relearn Algebra, Trigonometry, Geometry, Calculus I, II,III & IV and ODE skills from start to finish. I am now finished with Sullivan's book I have found the book easy to read and ...

Benson's Microbiological Applications: Laboratory Manual in General Microbiology, Short Version

Alfred E Brown

McGraw-Hill Science/Engineering/Math, 2008

Not the greatest, but it works
I wasn't a big fan of some of the questions and lab experiments we had to do with this manual, but it got me through the lab class and I ended up with an A. So, it was useful, but kinda dry and boring.

Precalculus: Mathematics for Calculus, Enhanced Review Edition (with CD-ROM and iLrn Printed Access Card)

James Stewart, Lothar Redlin, ...

Brooks Cole, 2007

Precalculus: Matheatics for Calculus: 5th Edition (with CD-rom)
I have never used the CD, but the book is okay. If you are going to take calculus in the future than you should get a cheaper precalculus book and save some money. This is essentially the same as the 4th edition, except the price tag. Only get if you absolutely must ...

Algebra and Trigonometry: Structure and Method Book 2
Richard G. Brown

Houghton Mifflin Company, 1999

Trigonometry

Charles P. McKeague, Mark D. Turner

Brooks Cole, 2007

learn trig without a teacher
This book is great. It is well organized, but best of all, it comes with a CD-Rom that ROCKS!! The actual author, Chuck McKeague, teaches each concept on a markerboard, then you can practice as much as you want with different problems every time. Plus, if you just ...

College Physics
Raymond A. Serway, Jerry S. Faughn, ...

Brooks Cole, 2008

While physics can seem challenging, its true quality is the sheer simplicity of fundamental physical theories--theories and concepts that can enrich your view of the world around you. COLLEGE PHYSICS, 8e, provides a clear strategy for connecting those theories to a consistent problem-solving approach, carefully reinforcing this methodology ...

Precalculus (8th Edition)

Michael Sullivan

Prentice Hall, 2007

Good book. Especially With Solution Manual.
Bought the teachers edition and 2 solution manual books (1500+pages each) all for 63 bucks. BRAND NEW! Anyways, this book I find to be a lot better than many many of the other math text books out there. What is nice about this book is the simple fact that it ...

Algebra and Trigonometry (3rd Edition) (Beecher/Penna/Bittinger Series)

Judith A. Penna, Marvin L. Bittinger

Addison Wesley, 2007

Impressive presentation
This is an impressive presentation of algebra & trig. It has a wealth of well designed visual aids and clear worked examples. Is it worth the list price of $144? No! There are scanty few textbooks that I would deem worthy of such outrageous prices. But, since this one ...

Precalculus: Graphical, Numerical, Algebraic (7th Edition)

Franklin Demana, Bert K. Waits, ...

Addison Wesley, 2006

Try Sullivan instead
This book is poor. Try Michael Sullivan's books instead. This book doesn't show you how to do the majority of the problems. I'm mostly flipping through the pages, trying to find the techniques, formulas, etc... but they are not there. I need this book for class ...

College Physics, Volume 1

Raymond A. Serway, Jerry S. Faughn, ...

Brooks Cole, 2007

Decent book in combination with class
I'm currently using this book in a high school physics course, and have found it to be fairly non-technical. The exercises at the end of each chapter vary in difficulty, from the very straight forward to the very difficult. While this book has many strengths, it should ...

Trigonometry: A Unit Circle Approach (8th Edition)

Michael Sullivan

Prentice Hall, 2007

Needs improvement!
The explanations in this book could be more concise for students who have other assignments to study and fulfill. Throughout all my years in reading mathematical textbooks, this one does not head straight-to-the-point. The author spends more time introducing the ...

Trigonometry For Dummies (For Dummies (Math & Science))

Mary Jane Sterling

For Dummies, 2005

Excellent Book But Could Have Used a Proofreader Or Two
I was in a bit of a quandary as to how to rate this book. I bought the book and the companion "Trigonometry Workbook for Dummies" to refresh my trig skills, long rusted after nearly 50 years of little use. Both books are really quite good although the workbook could ...
