4.0 out of 5 stars Mathematics made simple, March 21, 2000

Rod Terrell - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mathematics Made Simple (Paperback)

This is a helpful math book,it covers a lot of subjects from basic math to some pretty difficult topics.My only problem with it is that there are a bunch of wrong answers in the "answer" section,but it just made me hunt and work that much harder to find the correct answers.I hope they do a revision of this book because I would like to give it as a gift,but not at this time with all the mistakes in it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Great review - lousy math, January 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Mathematics Made Simple (Paperback)

Nice review of basic math principles, but there are an incredible number of mistakes in the answer section in the back of the book. Really confusing.

3.0 out of 5 stars It would be good, if it weren't for the wrong answers, December 25, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Mathematics Made Simple (Paperback)

Overall, the book seems to be a good, quick overview of math. Great if you've been out of school for a while. But it's tarnished by the unbelievable number of wrong answers in the back of the book. Math is an absolute, either right or wrong. How can these errors be allowed in a MATH book?
