Algebra I For Dummies (For Dummies (Math & Science))

I'm just saying that it was a good one for me to get. I just want to see the point where it is a great way to get my money on this one. I suggest that the company Amazon has a lot more to do with a new version of kindle fire when you have a great dictionary definition tool for me to get the best out of my favorite part of the day when you get to see the point of readings through the first time in the book with a tap on the text for a few explanations of the meaning of a word in each of the sections of the book. Like a great reference journal of the book which is a great way to get to know what you want to see. The first time I see the new one is the best thing ever when the new one would have a dictionary definition tool for the next and every word so I can get the best out of the best books and it would be the new leader in the world to me that it would be the best way to get the education in my life I live on and a great way to get the best thing everyday, the most important lessons learned from the start of the day, to learn the difference in the morning of every single nuance of any book because of the information on this definition tool.

I liked how the book was so well writtenI wished I had this book when I was taking the course in high school in 1966It would have saved me a lot of grief

Overall this book is very handy, I learned a lot of useful things that will help me to solve problems in many areas of my life, like in software engineering.There were times when I also researched about the topic in YouTube and Google to have more general idea, so don't be afraid to google when you don't understand something well.I was not math person in school, but this book showed that the math can be fun and useful for problem solving.

I love all of Professor Sterling's "Dummie Books". I am a bit ashamed of loving this one, however. when I have a problem with one of my Big College Books, I would hope that it would be big and complicated enough for her Algebra II book, but, I find out that the Algebra I book actually has a very good and detailed chapter on what happens to be slowing me down.She is very smart, but apparently she has had a lot of experience either in tutoring, or in helping desperate students showing up during her office hours.... She is Head of the Math Dept at some Mid-West University... no, not Harvard, Yale or Sanford... but she definitely knows her Math (in her Algebra II book she some out with a Neat Trick that she developed herself... the Girl is Smart and she ain't lazy. Clear and Lucid. I only regret that there is not a lot of exercises and problems, like in the College Textbooks.... but for this price.... well, buy her workbooks and such.

They have videos to go with this FANTASTIC BOOK

Like most middle-aged students my propensity for math has faded over the years. I purchased Mary Jane Sterling's book, 'Algebra 1 for Dummies,' simply to improve my memory skills--not to advance my professional understanding of the subject or to ace a college course. So this review is based on nothing more than armchair curiosity. If you're looking for an easy introduction to algebra, this book does a competent job. But as the chapters progressed I found myself struggling with more definitions and factors than I was comfortable with. Sterling's 'fun and easy" approach felt almost as dry and boring as my memories of high school pre-algebra by the time I reached the middle of this book. However,if you're a student who's looking for a quick refresher course, this might be the right approach for you.

This is a great book to re-learn the methodology behind what you already know. This reminded me why there is so much more to Algebra that your day to day thought process. Never taking Calculus back in College, it was my News Years resolution to do so. The first chapter of the pre-Calc book said that a refresher in Algebra is a big recommendation. Glad I did.
