Synopsis

The book is organized around a traditional table of contents, and offers a contemporary flavor through the use of the rule of four, modeling, and a strong conceptual orientation. The authors motivate readers by using outstanding contemporary applications that address important topical issues, as well as entertaining and illustrative ones. The applications are woven around a carefully paced presentation of algebra and trigonometry topics. A rich variety of exercises further engage and challenge readers. In PRECALCULUS, the authors assume that readers have access to a variety of graphing calculator models, so generic instruction is provided. Guidelines and keystrokes for specific calculators can be found in the free, text-specific online graphing calculator manual.

Review

"The exercises are the best Iave seen in any textbook. The progression from very basic standard problems, to applied problems, and then on to critical thinking, discussion and essay questions, and finally enrichment projects provides a wealth of material to reinforce understanding. The essay questions will nicely supplement efforts to promote writing across the curriculum, and the enrichment projects will be very useful to promote group activities as part of cooperative learning programs."
