Average Customer Rating:
I am very unhappy
Customer Rating:
I never received my book. When I finally got the book from another source, I wrote the seller and asked for a credit to be applied to my account. I haven't received that either. I don't know who to contact now to complain to, since the seller hasn't responded to me.
Beginning Algebra
Customer Rating:
This book teaches the basic elements of algebra, but I don't necassary like the structure of the book. Why teach fractions before you learn about whole #'s, real #'s and integers? However, it still is a good tool to use when learning algebra.
Excellent
Customer Rating:
This is in an excellent condition. All the pages are in good condition and overall, it's very convenient.
Beginnng Algebra by Lial
Customer Rating:
I like the way this book is laid out. It is a good book to self-learn from. The last time I was looking at an algebra book was over 25 years ago- this book has a lot of color, imagery and relevant information for using algebra. I would like to add that I ordered this book "express shipping" and received it nine days later. I thought it would arrive much faster than that, actually.
Reviews of this book are misleading...
Customer Rating:
I was reviewing many books online for purchase in terms of a refresher before I entered my college algebra class. After following many links and reading through many reviews I landed upon this one. After reading the reviews I was certain this was the book for me. But the title is slightly misleading, somewhat, as it had me believing it was a book purely based on a "student" mind and apptitude.
But after recieving the book and reading through it, to my surprise I find that it is nothing more than an answer sheet to a book with a similar title, and written by the same authors. Read these reviewers below me more carefully and they will certainly also have you believing the book reviewed is the one in which your about to buy. But that could not be farther from the truth.
Just take a look at the provided excerpt and you will see what I mean. Very disappointed to have found this after the fact. I scanned merely through the TOC. This was mostly my own fault but I was certainly lead towards this belief. Ah well. Hope noone shares my fate.
