Does anyone know of a good math and Algebra book for dummies.?
I am a 56 year old college student. All of my other grades are mostly an A/B student except for math. I am a dummy in math/Algebra. Will someone please tell where I can find a book or CD that will explain math problems in simple terms, or tell me where I may be able to order it.
Just a couple of comments. I would NOT recommend going out there and buying any expensive texts or DVD/CDs to learn alegbra - it is something that has been around since forever, and has more or less remained the same at the building-blocks level. So the same thing they were reaching 500 years ago still holds today. What you need to become successful in math is simply practice. If you're taking a class in Algebra, just use the text. I would also advise just looking at your college library's collection - skim through the books, and see if there are any that you find appealing. A text which is used widely is Sullivan's Algebra and Trig:
http://www.amazon.com/Algebra-Trigonometry-7th-Michael-Sullivan/dp/0131430734
It has a ton of questions and the more you practice, the better you'll become. You can view the solutions to all the questions at: http://w3.fiu.edu/math/html/algebra_and_precalculus.htm
