A testimony to a wonderful teacher
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I was also a student of Dr Person. After 30+ years, I am reviewing this text to rekindle an interest in mathematics, and studying the essentials of mathematics. I can still see Dr Person in my mind and and his exuberance of solving equations on the board. I once attempted to awaken a sleeping student near me and Dr Person admonished me, saying "Don't wake him up!! He gets A's!!!!" Great book. Still as effective as ever, taught by a master.
A real teaching book.

I used this book in school. I knew the man who wrote the book. He was a fantastic teacher. The book is just as good. Unlike most text books, which solve problems, leaving you with "How did they get that", this book gives you the steps. It shows you how to get from here to there with the steps laid out so you actually say wow that was easy. Like the other books Person has written, this is a jem. I only wish he had completed the last book he was working on, Differential Equations. I've collected all his works. If you want to learn math, this is it.
