Testimonials

“The text effectively incorporates technology as one of the important tools of a mathematician. This book clearly addresses the new standards for teaching mathematics and promotes sound pedagogy.”

“I was impressed with the practical applications, which should, for the most part, put to rest the ‘When will I ever use this?’ question. The application problems were outstanding.”

Martha Zimmerman
University of Louisville

“The review questions are wonderful examples of how the text strives to have students go beyond mechanical manipulation and focus more on understanding and being active, knowledgeable constructors of mathematical ideas and concepts. Well done.”
