5.0 out of 5 stars Algebra's Come a Long Way
I hate Algebra. Had to buy this for a class, and found out how much algebra classes have changed over the years. Lots of cds with work-along tutorials, very easy-to-understand guides to show how work was done. Excellent study guide!

2.0 out of 5 stars Great book to learn from but poorly put together
Mr. Blizter does a great job explaining everything in such detail that anyone should be able to understand the topic. My problem is the book is falling apart at the bind. It is not put together as well as it should be for a product that costs over a hundred dollars. The book is always put in a safe place where nothing can mess with it and it is not thrown around or bent...

2.0 out of 5 stars Great book to learn from but poorly put together, November 1, 2007
This review is from: College Algebra Essentials (2nd Edition) (Hardcover)
Mr. Blizter does a great job explaining everything in such detail that anyone should be able to understand the topic. My problem is the book is falling apart at the bind. It is not put together as well as it should be for a product that costs over a hundred dollars. The book is always put in a safe place where nothing can mess with it and it is not thrown around or bent in any way. I open my book today to study and it seperates at the bind.

This is a dissapointing product in terms of material quality. The inside is a great learning tool for College algebra and I recomend it only if they don't skimp on quality.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useless, January 24, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I searched for this textbook with the code included, and even ordered new to ensure it was included. We ended up having to buy the code separately. Had we known this prior to purchase, we would have bought a used book to save cost. The description needs to include all of the contents listed.

5.0 out of 5 stars cool book, March 28, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This was the most interesting book that I have ever bought or even just read for that matter. I can not believe that I have gone so far in life without this wonderful piece mathematical insight. In all seriousness the seller described the book well and shipping was fast. Thanks

1.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat Lacking at best, January 30, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I consider myself pretty good with Algebra, but with this book, I had to refer back to previous Algebra materials to learn the topics presented. Examples are not the best that could be used and those used were not explained thoroughly to understand the process being executed. Many errors in this book exercises, and even on it's tests...NOT GOOD. Needed to take the class twice to grasp all concepts.

3.0 out of 5 stars College Algebra, August 18, 2008
This review is from: College Algebra Essentials (2nd Edition) (Hardcover)
When I purchased this book it was a little confusing when it came in because it has three different covers. Looks can be deceiving, because all the information inside the book is the same.

1.0 out of 5 stars Book fell apart!!!!!!, June 16, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: College Algebra Essentials (2nd Edition) (Hardcover)
The glue has fallen apart at the seems of the book. Thank goodness it was cheap...over all I think the author leaves out a lot of steps you need to see to understand the problems. But if you have a good teacher/tutour you'll be fine.
