Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The amount and level of technical sophistication are growing at a phenomenal rate. To be equipped to deal with the complexities of today's increasingly technical society, individuals must have a strong base in mathematics that they can apply to a variety of situations. This book has been developed to provide such a base for students who are enrolled in college- level technical, pre-engineering and career-orientated programs.
