A classic in the series of highly respected Swokowski and Cole mathematics books, the Tenth Edition of FUNDAMENTALS OF COLLEGE ALGEBRA retains the elements that have made it so popular. Once again, the book provides a clear writing style, an appealing uncluttered layout, clear exposition, time-tested exercise sets that feature a variety of applications, and problems that are appropriate and consistent in level of difficulty. This book is clearly sets itself apart from the competition--it is mathematically sound, prepares students for further mathematics courses, and offers excellent problem sets. This new edition has been improved and all of the chapters now include numerous technology inserts with specific keystrokes for the TI-83 Plus and the TI-86 graphing calculators, which is very helpful to students who are working with a calculator for the first time.
using it for algebra class and its been helpful...i would recommend getting the solutions manual as well....
Is a great book if you want to learn the "fundamentals"

Yes, this book is great if you want to learn what's behind each equation. In fact the most important thing about this book is to remember these theories and reasons so that you can apply them to many problems. Nice for learning the rules and good examples that illustrate the main ideas.
