These books are for use by highschool students, and that book cannot be used. Rating: - A behemoth of solecism and cynicismThis book is not advanced, not mathematical, and certainly not about concepts. (And what a pretentious title!) I cannot recommend it to anyone with a drop of creativity or interest in mathematics. The errors of content are few, but grievous.

Rating: - A helpful TextbookIt is very important to have a good math book for the understanding of the concepts. This book has helped me greatly to comprehend the topics by presenting useful examples in each chapter, and it also did a good job pointing out main objectives/rules. If you need to do well in Pre-Calc start with this text! Rating: - A textbook that works, but stresses some unnecessary pointsAll in all, it's a complete precalculus textbook, covering topics from graphing, to trigonometry, to conic sections, to the surface of calculus. It contains many "real life" applications of advanced concepts, in a semi-successful attempt to quell agonizing exclamations of "When will I ever need to know this?!" But I turn to page 428 (for example), within Chapter 8 ("Vectors and Parametric Equations"), and I see a green box: "DECISION MAKING -- Choosing a Used Car," and it goes off on a tangent, ...
