  Defending this book!!!!! ( brandonsmom_1996 )
I was taking begining algebra for the second time this semester. I love this book. In the bookstore, it came bundled with the solution manual and the CDROM lecture series which are a must for anyone that struggles with math or misses a lot of class. I missed a month of class last semester and this semester. What made the difference in being able to pass this semester is this book, the lectures on CDROM by the author and the solution manual. If I had the book I used before last semester, I would have failed again! This book with all the fixings is the BEST.
  Very well written ( equihealth2 )
It had been 37 years since I had last worked an algebra problem. This book is very good and I didn't find it difficult to understand or to work the problems.
  Beginning Algebra ( rollinwithme )
This book is in great condition For being used, no writting on any pages or the covers, no bent pages, over all in perfect condition, and I am picky on how a book looks. I hardly even used the book because I ordered it and it was the worng book but I looked through it and used it to study until I got the right book.
  Wrong book, no response to email complaint 
The book is the incorrect edition of the one I ordered. It is a math book, and inappropriately is the annotated instructor's edition. The invoice is correct, but the book is not. The company, SRJbooks2@yahoo.com has not responded to my complaint and request to corrct the order.
  Ok ( jcwilliams_24 )
This book was required for my math instruction, and as several readers have mentioned before, I am glad that the instructor was an excellent teacher the book by itself is no use. Unless you understand math to begin with.

However used with an excellent instructor it becomes a useful tool.
