I'm back in school after many, many years and, right out the gate, I'm taking math. Math is not by strong point. I can do math, but it frightens and alarms me.
The electricians' edition of Practical Problems In Mathematics is a very good, very comprehensive analysis of the various kinds of equations and formulas you will need as an electrician. You may not use all of the information from this book but, if you plan on working in electricity or electronics, everything you will need is here. Very simple, straightforward and concise, this book does the trick.
However, there are printing errors in this book, which is a real pain if you don't have the answers. Actually, some of the answers (remember the ol', "answers for odd problems in the back of the book?") are wrong. Printing errors in a romance novel are one thing; in a mathematics text book, they're completely unacceptable.
That aside, if you're looking for a solid grounding in electricity based mathematics, this book's for you.
