This book greatly enhances the algebra it teaches with many easy-to-follow examples, graphs, and pictures. Also, the topics included are very thorough. The text itself is very easy to understand, with multiple problems, including word problems, immediately following the text and examples. The back of the book has a section on using graphing calculators, a section on formulas that need to be memorized, and a section on how many formulas in math are derived. An index is also included. In addition to all this, the odd answers to almost all of the problems in the book are given in the back of the book.
Best Math Book

I use this book at school, and my teacher is great just like the book. I've used the passport then algebra 1 and now algebra 2. It is a lot easier to learn how to do problems and the layout is really great!
Best math book ever!

I am currently taeching myself Algebra 2 using this book, and I'll tell you, it's great! The book makes learning algebra very easy, even by yourself! One of the best things about this book is its real-life applications. It gives word problems from a LOT of non-math subjects that are absolutely great!
Excellent book for self study

I returned to college after 15 years. Before taking the math placement tests, I studied Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 - I placed into precalculus and received an A in this class. I credit the books for giving me these results - prior to this I was a poor math student. I have just finished calculus (1st class) with an A. I really recommend both of these books. They helped me enormously - and I have regained confidence in my math abilities.
