 A great find! August 20, 2008

If you are trying to refresh your basic math skills from high school, then this is the book for you. I have checked out several different basic math guides, including the "for Dummies" one, and this one is by far the best. It's small enough to fit in my bag, but still explains the problems well. I am doing so well with it that I am looking into the other topics that are covered by the series.
 Brief Overview December 12, 2007

This book is for overview. It cannot be a main book. But it can be used for revision purpose.
