4.0 out of 5 stars Thorough but digestible, 9 Mar 2004
By A Customer
I bought this book to polish up my rusty algebra - it's been a few years since A level - and as a refresher course it worked very well. It starts from the absolute basics, so it would probably also be suitable for someone who's never studied algebra before, although a little mathematical knowledge is assumed.

The authors manage to include a lot of useful tips and observations in the text while maintaining a readable style, not over-formatted or cute like a "For Dummies" book. There are plenty of worked examples and exercises with answers. The book only misses out on 5 stars because of a few minor printing errors, which could be important in a book of this kind.

5.0 out of 5 stars An appetizer for first-year economics undergraduates, 22 Nov 2000
By A Customer
Teach Yourself Algebra is an excellent appetizer for those first-year economics undergraduates who are not very confident about their mathematical skills. It was strongly recommended by a lecturer of Quantitative Methods before I started my course in Manchester. It's compact and can usually be digested in a month without much pain. It's full of Qs & As, so after the reading, you're probably ready to apply algebra to economics theories, as I was. Thanks for this book, I now like maths. Cheap & lots to learn: It's such a good investment I've ever made!

2.0 out of 5 stars Yawn...another feeble maths textbook, 18 Jun 2008
By D. Freedman - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In all maths exams you're required to show your working-out, how you arrived at your answer. Not, however, if you're the author of a maths textbook, apparently. The authors assume that the one or at most two examples are so sparklingly clear that you don't need any more, and the exercises only give you the answers. If you don't understand how they were arrived at, tough! This would be OK in other circumstances, but only a few pages in the author lapses rapidly into sloppily assuming knowledge that I for one didn't have. It's not that terrible, but in a teach-yourself book, it's fairly unforgivable. I'm moving on to Stroud's Engineering Mathematics, which seems to assume nothing. See me, must do better...
