    Great book, as textbooks go. Confirm need if using My Math Lab Plus.

    This text was listed as required material for college course- Math for Liberal Arts. The text is well formatted and easy to understand. If you will be required to purchase access to My Math Labs Plus for completion of homework and quizzes, keep in mind that the text book is included in that program. I am now half way through the course and have not yet found that any portion of the text is not included on-line. Had I known that, I may have opted to not buy the book at all. However, I did find a great used copy through half.com and was thoroughly pleased with the seller, the condition of the book and the buying experience, so, I cannot say that I'm disappointed at all!

    This textbook was instrumental in easing some of my fear of Mathematics.

    The book has served me well in class. The examples of problems are easy to follow along with the end of chapter practice problems. I have been able to work through some of the problems that have helped improve my work assignments in class. Yes, an Excellent Textbook.

    This is a great book.

    I was looking for the math book for my Contemp Math Class. Because the one the school was offering was for $150. Having this book so far has helped me tremendously.
