Intermediate Algebra

by Jerome E. Kaufmann, Karen L. Schwitters

Thousands of students have learned algebra with the Kaufmann Solution. This text is written for college students who need an algebra course that bridges the gap between elementary algebra and the more advanced courses in precalculus mathematics. The basic concepts of intermediate algebra are presented in a simple, straight-forward manner. Algebraic ideas are developed in a logical sequence, through examples, continuously reinforced through additional examples, and then applied in a variety of problem-solving situations. In this edition, special efforts were made by the authors to incorporate improvements suggested by reviewers and by users to earlier editions, while at the same time preserving the book's many successful features.

Reviews

[Quinton Baran · Rating 5 out of 5]

I started reading this book as a review of algebra; I continued as a practice to help my children with their math as they got into more advanced mathematics.

I believe that the rating for this book is simply because it is a math book, not for the actual quality of the writing. I find that the author does an excellent job of writing and explaining mathematical concepts.
