Math Smart

by Marcia Lerner

Whether you're shopping in the supermarket or playing the stock market, a command of arithmetic is necessary in order to succeed in today's society. But many people have problems with even basic math. Enter Math Smart , an irreverent, easy-to-follow guide that begins with the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and goes on to the scary stuff like exponents, square roots, geometry and algebra. Math Smart will help you break down any complicated equation into its basic parts and won't require you to memorize dozens of long functions and equations.

For students, Math Smart provides a great review for the math achievements and the math sections of the SAT, GMAT, GRE and ACT, as well as being a helpful supplement to confusing math texts. It includes drills throughout, reviews at the end of each chapter, and a glossary of terms.
