Format:Paperback
This book has changed my whole attitude to a subject that I hated at school and have never had any confidence in. Just flicking through it was enough to make me realise that I could actually understand things straight away that I had always thought I couldn't do! It was a real eye-opener for me and has given me the confidence to face up to something that I have always avoided. I was so chuffed I wrote an email to the author to thank him and got a lovely email back from him straight away.
If you didn't keep up with maths at school or thought everybody else 'got it' whilst you got left further and further behind then this is a great book for you. PS I have forgiven my maths teacher for all the times he threw the board rubber at our heads in frustration and hopefully he might have learned a a little about his teaching style over the years!

I am restarting education at 41 years old, hoping to increase my employment chances if the recession bites.
I believe that mathematics is an essential skill, but I lack confidence, probably because of bad experience as as child. This book changes that.
It is written in such a clear, straightforward way that I'm wondering what my problem was with this subject; dare I say it, mathematics appears to be enjoyable.
The beauty of it is, all my questions are answered in a way that makes the subject interesting.
Graham Lawler: you are a hero.

I left school some years ago with a less than average understanding of maths. I've have almost completed the book which is extremely easy to understand and it takes you through each calculation step by step. There are practise questions at the end of each chapter with the answers at the back of the book. A definite must have for anyone wanting to improve their maths from basic level up.
