This book was in terrific condition and came sooner than expected for my husband's college course. Even better, the book is the teacher's edition and had some great helps for those of you who are rusty on math procedures for different real-world applications.
If you need tyo brush up your math skills in any way, this is the book for it, especially if you get the teacher's edition.

Great Book
This book was required for the class I was taking, but it was easy to understand and follow the examples.
