Customer Reviews

Excellent: all the layman could cope with, and more.

As a one volume reference to the more abstruse areas of the subject, I found this work extremely useful.

A must for you to acquire it!

At last a comprehensive and concise reference work on mathematics. It gives you definitions, formulas, explanations, historical information and guidelines for further exploration, and glimpses of practical applications. Fabulously illustrated with drawings, diagrams and photos. Indispensable in your library for consult or normal guide for your children.!
