A Survey of Mathematics with Applications continues to be a best-seller because it shows students how we use mathematics in our daily lives and whythis is important. The Ninth Edition further emphasizes this with the addition of new "Why This Is Important" sections throughout the text. Real-life and up-to-date examples motivate the topics throughout, and a wide range of exercises help students to develop their problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Angel, Abbott, and Runde present the material in a way that is clear and accessible to non-math majors. The text includes a wide variety of math topics, with contents that are flexible for use in any one- or two-semester Liberal Arts Math course. 0321837533 / 9780321837530 A Survey of Mathematics with Applications Plus NEW MyMathLab with Pearson eText -- Access Card Package Package consists of: 0321431308 / 9780321431301 MyMathLab/MyStatLab -- Glue-in Access Card 0321654064 / 9780321654069 MyMathLab Inside Star Sticker 0321759664 / 9780321759665 Survey of Mathematics with Applications, A

This course was fine, but I can't really bring myself to give a math textbook a higher rating than 1 star. I only took this course and read this book because it is required for my to obtain my Psychology degree so I can become a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. Much of the math in this book was impractical and unnecessary for the average person.

Used this book for my Discrete Mathematics class. I will keep this book around. Students are always saying that will never use math after high school. This book has many problems which students could use in real-life situations.

GAH!

[Amber · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is a math book so it is not exactly exciting reading. There are some interesting facts, but not enough to overcome the fact that this is a math book.

[Tamer Alshazly · Rating 4 out of 5]

One of the few best books in math, which solved the golden equation - to do math and still be fun.
