Another excellent Outline from Schaum's

This book from Schaum's is an all-in-one review/tutorial book for anyone who wants to brush up his math and is especially useful for those who want to apply math knowledge to areas such as astronomy, business, and electronics. First of all - what this book is NOT: This book isn't all a review of basic elementary arithmetic concepts like addition, multiplication, proportions, and decimals. In fact, it actually covers this stuff really briefly in the first chapter. It really covers high school mathematic subjects such as algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, and statistics. Maybe "Outline of High School Mathematics" would be a more accurate title. This outline goes through math subjects too quickly to be considered an effective tutorial. For example, geometry essentials are covered in only one chapter. Its actual contents - Over half of this book is on intermediate algebra topics, followed by trigonometry. This was really a great all-in-one math manual for me. Great buy!

Very useful review of arithmetic and its applications

I have found this book to be very easy to read. It really help me to refresh some of the basic concepts and understand how to do arithmetic in bases different than the decimal. I really liked the fact that it used what I already knew about arithmetic to teach me the new concepts. I highly recommend thls book. Plenty of exercises and nice introduction to statistics.
