I taught with this book for a number of years and even though it has not been the Ministry of Education recommended text for over a decade it is still sought after in any edition by fellow Math teachers here in St. Lucia. I still often turn to it for useful exercises and challenging problems to help engage my students in interesting thinking exercises in class. I can honestly say I have read this Math textbook right through many times over. I should add, no Math txt is perfect.
