Underneath all of the special features, that are common to see in beginning math textbooks these days, one finds the essential kernel of a solid course in trigonometry in this text, as well as a nice review of college algebra. Naturally, the additional "stuff" provides a whole level of organization above the basic concepts, definitions and theorems of trigonometry. Thus, the wise student can tailor a course of study for her or his needs. This makes this textbook very suitable for classroom settings such as in community colleges in which one finds students with a diversity of learning styles. Although this makes learning trigonometry optimally easy for the student, this does not signify that the typical student would be wise to neglect working substantial numbers of problems. The text is especially rich in "word problems", which are the valuable types of problems to prepare one for courses such as physics, that involve applications of mathematics for which trigonometry is important. The level of rigor is suitable for beginning students. The question arises as well as to what extent a text like this would be a wise investment for a student who wishes to learn trigonometry by self-study. My personal view is that in a setting apart from teachers and tutors for guidance, this book would be too demanding for most beginning students.
