Synopsis

This text provides a continuous flow from elementary to intermediate algebra and eliminates the overlap found in these courses. The basic concepts of elementary and intermediate algebra are developed in a logical sequence and in an easy-to-read manner, without excessive technical vocabulary and formalism. Whenever possible, the author allows the algebraic concepts to develop from their arithmetic counterparts.

Review

The text is written with a very readable, approachable style which rarely sacrifices precision or technical correctness. I appreciate a book which does not insist upon an overly pedantic style at the expense of directness and clarity. Reading the book should be a good backup to, and positive reinforcement of lectures. I love the phrase 'thinking first before pushing the pencil.
