Summary: Great purchase
Comment: Even though we paid for express delivery, it took longer so we were a little bummed about that. However, the book arrived in great shape - except one corner of the binding got broken during shipping. It is exactly the book she needed and otherwise was like brand new. Very satisfied with my purchase.

Summary: College Algebra
Comment: When I purchased this book it was a little confusing when it came in because it has three different covers. Looks can be deceiving, because all the information inside the book is the same.

Summary: Algebra's Come a Long Way
Comment: I hate Algebra. Had to buy this for a class, and found out how much algebra classes have changed over the years. Lots of cds with work-along tutorials, very easy-to-understand guides to show how work was done. Excellent study guide!

Summary: Great book to learn from but poorly put together
Comment: Mr. Blizter does a great job explaining everything in such detail that anyone should be able to understand the topic. My problem is the book is falling apart at the bind. It is not put together as well as it should be for a product that costs over a hundred dollars. The book is always put in a safe place where nothing can mess with it and it is not thrown around or bent in any way. I open my book today to study and it seperates at the bind.

This is a dissapointing product in terms of material quality. The inside is a great learning tool for College algebra and I recomend it only if they don't skimp on quality.


Editorial Review for College Algebra Essentials (2nd Edition) (Blitzer Algebra):

Gets Them Engaged. Keeps Them Engaged. In a Shorter Text! Blitzer's philosophy: present the full scope of mathematics, while always (1) engaging the student by opening their minds to learning (2) keeping the student engaged on every page (3) explaining ideas directly, simply, and clearly so they don't get "lost" when studying and reviewing. First, he gets students engaged in the study of mathematics by highlighting truly relevant, unique, and engaging applications. He explores math the way it evolved: by describing real problems and how math explains them. In doing so, it answers the question "When will I ever use this?" Then, Blitzer keeps students engaged by ensuring they don't get lost when studying. Examples are easy to follow because of a three-step learning system -- "See it, Hear it, Try it" embedded into each and every one. He literally "walks" the student through each example by his liberal use of annotations -- the instructor's "voice" that appears throughout.
