Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A good choice for a refresher or supplement, unsuitable as a main text for the algebra novice

The treatment of logarithms is archaic. There is no discussion of exponential equations or logarithmic equations. Solving exponential and logarithmic equations is part of any good college algebra class and textbook, and is a fundamental skill required for calculus, science and engineering. Lacking these topics, the Outline is not a complete supplement ... Read More
