If you take the time to read the book it is engaging and sometimes funny. The author explains the math very well using real-world situtations. The application problems are great for bringing the concepts home.

Very much liked the review of the prerequisite math rules needed to make progress with algebra. Good examples, good practice problems.

Blitzer has done a great job breaking down the concepts of College Algebra. The examples are detailed and students are able to get immediate feedback on their understanding after each topic with what he calls "check points". I like the real-world applications for each lesson and the chapter test solutions on CD. I am a teacher using this book in a high school classroom.

Book came in on time. service was honest.I was a little worried at first since it was being filled by a different company than amazon but the service did hold up to what others have said before.

Came in the condition as told. Also the seller was very cooperative agreeing to a few requests I had and shipped within 2 days :)

I've seen this good book (4th edition) in many different h/b covers for only 9 euros in the "boekenfestival" clearance sales that occur regularly throughout Holland.

this covers the basics first and then goes on to of course the harder stuff. It is a good book. I received it soon after ordering and it was a great price for such a "good-looking" used book.

Book was exactly as stated - great seller - great price -

Thanks

Book arrived in great condition in a fast timely manner which was good since my daughter needed it quick

This is one of the better textbooks I have
on the subject. One will have to put the
time in but the book does a
good job explaining concepts.
If I may suggest something that
has helped my studies greatly, a little book called
Don't Like to Read, Then Don't, Listen!: How to
Turn Any Type of Text Into Audio Files That Can
Be Read to You!. I know that many students out
there are like me and would rather listen to
material than have to read it themselves. I use
programs like the one that is reading this review
to have my texts read to me. This is a god send
for me. One can get this title on amazon.
