Book Overview
Since the first edition of PRIMER FOR CALCULUS was published in 1978, Holder has consistently addressed the idea that students don't fail calculus, they fail the algebra. His clarity of exposition and numerous exercises help students develop their ability to do the algebraic manipulations that they will encounter in calculus. He uses chapter openers, taken from calculus texts, illustrate the idea or technique to be studied in each chapter.

So far, so good. I wish I could find the study guide though

So far this book has been helpful in my review of Algebra and Trig., but I wish I could find the study guide or problem solver manual that is no longer published.
Excellent, just plain excellent

This is the best first year college algebra book I'v ever used. Mr. Holder is a very talented writer / teacher, who doesn't waste the student's already overtaxed mental capacities doing all kinds of unneccary mathematical summersaults. He get's right down to the heart of the topic at hand and does so with an amazingly easy to understand narrative. This book is a definite must have for first year maths as well as for second and third year reference.
A great review of Algebra and Trigonometry.

I have the 5th edition and still use it today. This is the book if you need a refresher or would like a great overview of all the mathematics needed for Calculus.
