Excellent Algebra review May 2, 2004
ad_crumenam (United Kingdom)
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is more for the mature student reviewing Algebra after a lapse in education than for the young student taking Algebra for the first time. The book also assumes knowledge of basic arithmetic so if you cannot multiply or divide fractions, for example, you should try one of the Teach Yourself Mathematics/Basic Mathematics books before beginning this book. However, if you are comfortable in basic mathematics and need to review Algebra, this book is perfect. Incidentally, Peter Selby also wrote a pre-Calculus review of Geometry and Trigonometry which is also excellent; so if you are reviewing intermediate maths with a view to learning Calculus, give both books a go.

I am a mature student struggling to get back to grips with basic algebra. I wanted a book I could use as a workbook as well as a reference guide and am very glad this book was recommended to me. Its been very helpful.

This book helped me re-learn my algebra skills after 9 years, for a college placement test. I passed!!! I strongly recommend this book as a valuable tool to study algebra.

This book is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I am getting ready to start college, and I wanted to major in theoretical physics but all I had ever taken was basic math through school. This book helped me learn more in one week than a high school teacher could in a month. If you want to learn algebra, and are good in arithmitic buy this book and see for yourself.
Completely understandable walk through of Algebra February 19, 1998

I recently had to get back into Math. I was not anxious since it had been about 10 years since I had to practice and test myself on Math. I asked my College Counselor (College of Marin) who recommended your book "Practical Algebra: A Self Teaching Guide". I was afraid!! But once I got into the book, from Page 1, I felt comfortable. I felt as if the instructor was there with me, supporting me and teaching me all at once. I felt completely at ease with the structure, the pace and the questions. Thank you so much for allowing my return to Math be so painless.
