Summary: *Superb* Self-Teaching Instrument
Comment: I applaud Rhonda Huettenmueller and whole heartedly agree with the R. Orchanian review (the New York teacher). The very best available that absolutely takes the mystery out of this area of mathematics. The sequence of the chapters is superb, clear, concise and very, very accurate. It includes process steps that are left out of many *so called* self-teaching guides which leaves many students scratching their head. Just quite simply the very best book written on the subjct, hands down. I hope Ms. Huettenmueller doesn't stop here.

Summary: Wonderful Book
Comment: A great help in my Precalculus I class. The information is presented in a better manner than the textbook for the course.

Summary: Excellent book
Comment: Dr Huettenmueller was my professor at UNT for Pre-Calculus. She is an amazing instructor. She really has a way of getting to the key concepts in a clear and concise manner.

Summary: A Perfect Book!
Comment: I am a newly certified teacher of secondary Mathematics (grades 7-12) in New York State. I am in the processes of reviewing Pre-Calculus.
So I see this book through two lenses.
1.) As a student: It is a dramatic relief to have each and every answer correct. I wouldn't underestimate the comfort of knowing what you are reading is 99.99% to 100% correct. Having used Schaum's, which can be peppered with errors, this is a welcome relief.
2.) As a teacher: Every explanation is well written and crystal clear. We are brought from the simple to the complex. (Of course, I've had to read some parts multiple times to 'get it.') Ms. Huettenmueller has the extremely rare combination of brilliant communication skills, aka pedagogy, along with mastery of content.
This brings the reader to the conclusion that the author (and the publisher) really cares that you learn this 'stuff.' A sense of a
pursuit of exellence comes through the pages.
I am sure Ms. Huettenmueller is a GIFTED teacher!
As a new teacher, this is someone I'd love to emulate.
