  • Glad I purchased this book
I waited to review this book until after I finished it so I could see how everything went. I purchased this book because I'm going to be starting school again and I was really concerned about doing College Algebra. It's been so long since I've been in school and math is one of my harder subjects as I mix up numbers and can't remember how to do more complex equations. I loved that this book is very thorough by starting with basic math and progressing to the algebra and geometry portions. This was great as it helped to rebuild my math skills so that by the end of the book I was solving problems with more ease than before I started the book. I didn't really use the videos they said we have access to. First, because I didn't find a video to every lesson, second, if I couldn't understand the concept being taught I looked up videos on YouTube and found excellent help from there. Helpful tip: I also found a fractions calculator online that helped me work through a problem if I couldn't understand where I went wrong. Each page has review exercises that has problems taught earlier in the book. I liked this as it kept things fresh in my mind for how to solve a problem. Then the page had "Helpful Hints." This is where it shows the concept you will be working on for that page and how to solve the problem. It's not super informative, but gives enough that I understood 98% of what was being taught from that section. I only needed outside help from videos a few times. Other than that it was easy to figure out how to complete the problems. Lastly, there are 10 problems you will solve related to the concept shown in the Helpful Hints section. There is a review after each section in the book that goes over all the previous pages for that particular subject- such as fractions- the review page will have 20 questions related to fractions. Finally, after the lessons on page 197-224 are addition practice problems you can do for the algebra portion of the book. Each page has 20 problems you can work out to fine tune your skills. The book ends with a 100 question final that goes over all concepts taught in the book. I gave 4 stars because there were about 4 pages I ended up not being able to do as I didn't understand the concept or it wasn't taught in the book. Overall, this book was a great resource and I feel it gave me confidence to take the next step in my education. I was so impressed I purchased it for my sister as well. ... show more

  • This book is great! But be aware of wrong answers!
I had to purchase this book because as a young student I wasn’t really good at math, so in my twenties I thought this math book would help and of course it did! Which I’m loving but my only question is why are some of the answers wrong; I have a web math calculator on a website and it’s the correct way but the book answers is different! So when you purchase this book yes it’s great but be aware of some wrong answers or ask look up the problem on google or even ask for help🤣! ... show more

  • Ok so far
I was expecting more written instruction. The directions are very brief and mostly use math lingo that I have forgotten. There is very little instruction and I cannot find the videos that go with this book. I am going to continue giving this book a chance, I am not so sure this is doing to do the trick but we'll see. ... show more

  • Excellent book with easy to understand lesson structure!
Wanted to brush up on my math skills 20 years after high school. I've tried several other books but the way they were written left me feeling overwhelmed. I was able to jump right into this and re-learn much of what I had forgotten as well as learn some new things I had never learned in school! Richard W. Fisher's book is written in the simplest way possible. You aren't overwhelmed by half a page of mathematical formulas followed by a complicated explanation and practice quiz. Each mathematical concept is broken down into it's most basic components. A few sentences of instruction are given and then you are given some examples of how it looks on paper and then you are given some practice questions so you can try the formulas yourself. In this way you are given time to build confidence and test your grasp of the formulas by having a top to bottom understanding of how they work. This approach puts you are in a good position to understand the terminology and symbology of the lessons you are studying as well as future lessons. If you ever struggled with math or are a slow learner this is the book for you! ... show more

  • Good Practice Workbook, Not Enough Instruction
Was hoping for a bit more instructional material, but I'll have to find that elsewhere. Happy with the practice questions. Helps me understand what I remember and can work out and what I need more academic information to understand. Good book overall, happy with my purchase and highly recommend, esp. for parents who need to help their kiddos with math! ... show more

  • The best review I’ve come across.
I’m tutoring adults returning to college, and I’ve tried several books. This is by far the best with the most topics and excellent examples.
