Everyday math, everyday language.
The Tenth Edition of A Survey of Mathematics with Applications continues the tradition of showing students how we use mathematics in our daily lives and why it’s important, in a clear and accessible way. With straightforward language, detailed examples, and interesting applications, the authors ensure non-majors will relate to the math and understand the mathematical concepts that pervade their lives. With this revision, an expanded media program in MyMathLab, and a new workbook further build upon the tradition of motivating and supporting student learning.

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.
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.
