5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for tech college
Reviewed in the United States on 29 January 2020
Verified Purchase
I teach a "math for engineering technicians" course at a two-year technical college. This book is perfect as a resource, because it has just the right kinds of topics presented in just the right way, for any pre-engineering student. His explanations at the beginning of each chapter about "why I will need this" are great, as is the content and presentation itself.

That said, it is NOT the kind of book to teach straight through from beginning to end. It starts with a basic review of fractions decimals percents, runs through engineering notation and transposing formulas, all the way (many chapters later) to calculus and differential equations. It's also not particularly linear: so far I've been jumping back and forth a little among chapters 2-8, all of which deal with basic formulas in some sense, but an official chapter on straight lines comes much later in the book, after systems of equations as I recall. But, I'm getting it to work for me.

Reviewed in Germany on 5 February 2020

Ich verstehe nicht, warum AMAZON die Kindle Version noch verkauft. Habe erst nach dem Kauf die Rezension gesehen, die beschreibt, dass z.B. Brüche nicht korrekt dargestellt werden
Statt 2/3 steht dort dann 2 3
Damit kann man nicht arbeiten.

Best math book I've got. Easy to read and understand. Multiple samples and worked out solutions made it easy to follow. I highly recommend this book for students and math enthusiast such as myself to acquire a firm understanding of mathematics from a to z.

Very detailed book, which I will use to assist me and refer to as part of my HNC studies. The tutor uses examples from the book and was the one who recommended the book.
