2.0 out of 5 stars
Worst math book ever,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mathematics: A Practical Odyssey (6th Edition) (Hardcover)
Having a teacher that loved this book didn't help. It was confusing, very hard to read, the problems were boring, and I found lots of typos and grammatical errors. It was just a very frustrating book to work with for a whole semester. The new edition isn't any better.

This review is from: Mathematics: A Practical Odyssey (6th Edition) (Hardcover)
This product arrived in good condition and with in a good time frame. However in their display the don't show both of the ISBN numbers which angers me a lot because I thought I was buying a book without misprints and I ended up buying a book with misprints, thankfully I can still do my school work, but this could be dangerous for other students.
