Praise for Tussy/Gustafson |

“I
love your marginal notes in general,
and really appreciate your inclusion
of the Language of Mathematics comments—very
helpful in leading the student to
an understanding of the terminology.”
Ned Schillow,
Lehigh Carbon Community College
“It is clear
that the authors have made an extra
effort to make this revision more
friendly to students. Evidence of
this can be seen in the Strategy
and WHY
approach, and also in the number of
examples that are worked out in each
section.”
Jason Pallett,
Longview Community College |
