Customer Reviews

I'm now getting this textbook!

I looked over the reviews to see which textbook to buy, as I LOVE ALGEBRA. I feel that the reader from South Carolina helped me out a lot, because anyone who can feel so strongly about an Algebra text must love the book. As far as the Tulsa guy, theres one thing to say. Algebra has many solutions to the same problem. It is the textbooks job to figure out which one is most easily figured out, and many times, they explain it in different ways. Maybe he likes the Kannaderum Theorem, but maybe kids at a level of grade 8 or 9, won't understand it. I have not yet received the textbook, but from what I've taken out of the reviews, it is a good one. Maybe the Tulsa guy should REEVALUATE himself and the text, and figure out why it is so bad. I also know not to take everything from these reviews, as I read a review of a teacher in Iliinois teaching Algebra 2 in 6TH GRADE!!!! That is way too complex a subject to be teaching at that level, and she blamed it on the book, which was by the same authors, and entitled Algebra 1 published by McDougal-Littell, no Heath, and I used that in school, and it's also a great textbook, think of either to buy. I thank everyone for their valuable input.

I can't beleive my eyes!

What is this world coming too. I can't believe a 10 year old kid can get a hold of such vital information to our everyday life such as this great Algebra I book. I don't know how they things in Peggs, Iowa but where I am from there is a thing we like to call class for our mathmeticians which obviously Iowans and Tulsans don't have. I don't know who Gil Guttenheimer is but I intend to meet him. He sounds like a deep and intelectual person who seems to know what he is talking about. My view on this book is it is full of inspiring formulas and even better linear equations. I tell my kids that this book is like a pringles can, Once you pop the fun never stops. I was doing my nightly reading of math text books and this one caught off guard as being the best text book ever written. Put it up for a grammy or a nobel prize. It is far superior to any other text book i have ever read and i found my self crying as I poured through this intelectual stimulator. I was so choked up at the genious examples in chapter 7 that I had to put it down, for I thought that I am not good enough to be reading such a exquisite book. I have read this book several times now and I almost have all the answers memorized. This book has kept me going through my life and its teachings have inspired me to come a teacher myself. I am planning to travel around America on a llama, trying to spread the wonderful word of the integrated aproach and touch people with this book, as the way it has touched me. Look in your local newspaper for when I come to a town near you and if i never make it to your area, at least take the time to go through this book and be touched by the miracle of Algebra I, through the eyes of Ronald E. Larson, my new hero. Although i plan to get to many cities, Tulsa and Peggs will not be on my list for the fear of the horrible neglection of the integrated approach.

The Tulsa Guy Is Wrong

This is the greatest mathematical book since Euclid compiled all the thereoms of geometry. Whoever wrote this book should be given a medal of honor for his great addition to our mathematical community. I can't actually believe that some guy from Tulsa Okalhoma would actually write such a review about a great text book. My only guess is he had a horrible teacher who couldn't explain things at all. What ever the kannardeum theorum is, it is probably just some stupid rendition to the math squarewhich is my favorite formula. What is your favorite formula? is what this book left me thinking at the end of the year. I have a new rendition to the substitution method of solving called the Berkeum theorm. I am sure it will be all over in a couple of years. I hope all people from Tulsa aren't as narrowminded as the one who wrote the other review. Teachers, if you are indecisive about what math text book to get. This is definately the one to go with, and parents if you are looking for an award to give to your kids, this will make them love you forever. I will never forget when i got my first Algebra book when I was 6.I hope you find my review useful.

Great Book!

I am student from Oklahoma. I have used this book in our Algebra I class. This book is truly a terrific book. This book has real-life situations and great examples! If you are planning to buy this book than absolutely do. After you use this book you won't want to buy any other. Heath Algebra I. A book designed for the modern world.

Perfect!

I as a student had Saxton math books. I didn't like them very much. When I got into High School we were introduced into the Heath mathematics course. These books have real - life applications and real life equations in them. They also get you ready for the math courses you take in College.
