Easy Way - Algebra, Geometry, PreCalculus, Calculus, Physics, Bookkeeping, and Business Math

by Barron's Educational Publishers

High School

These easy-to-understand, self-teaching books are perfect for learning the basics, brushing up before testing, or for review. They cover all the essentials for each subject, presenting fundamental concepts with clear, easy to understand language and examples. Easy Way titles cover advanced high school and college-101 levels. The practical ‘get to the point’ approach enables the student to cover the subject matter thoroughly in a shorter amount of time. I went through the chemistry text and found it to be excellent and as in-depth and challenging as necessary for high school. See our foreign language, science, and consumer math and business sections for more of these great books.

PreCalculus the Easy Way An experienced math instructor and teacher trainer helps to make PreCalculus easy - even for students who feel intimidated by more advanced math topics. His orderly, step-by-step approach begins with concepts and skills typically introduced in a first-year high-school-level algebra course then progresses to advanced algebra and trigonometry, needed for the study of calculus. The lesson format and step-by-step demonstration examples are designed for self-teaching and rapid learning. Special math tips help resolve student difficulties and are strategically located throughout the text. Major topics include: algebra; graphs and graphing calculator methods; complex numbers; polynomial and rational functions; exponential and logarithmic functions; fitting lines and curves to data; trigonometry and polar coordinates; conic sections and parametric equations; counting and probability; binomial theorem; and probabilities. Check-up exercises at the end of each chapter help students monitor their progress.	Reg. ~~$14.99~~ On Sale! $12.15

Calculus The Easy Way This ingenious, user-friendly introduction to calculus recounts adventures that take place in the mythical land of Carmorra. As the story’s narrator meets Carmorra’s citizens, they confront a series of practical problems, and their method of working out solutions employs calculus. As readers follow their adventures, they are introduced to calculating derivatives; finding maximum and minimum points with derivatives; determining derivatives of trigonometric functions; discovering and using integrals; working with logarithms, exponential functions, vectors, and Taylor series; using differential equations; and much more. This introduction to calculus presents exercises at the end of each chapter and gives their answers at the back of the book. Step-by-step worksheets with answers are included in the chapters. Computers are used for numerical integration and other tasks. The book also includes graphs, charts, and whimsical line illustrations.	Reg. ~~$14.99~~ On Sale! $12.15

Physics The Easy Way Here is an introduction to physics for high school students, college-101 courses, or students looking for a self-teaching introduction to this sometimes intimidating science. The author makes physics easier to comprehend by using ordinary language to explain concepts. Mathematical techniques, limited to elementary algebra, are introduced and used throughout to provide the necessary rigor and to give students the tools they need to solve problems. Topics introduced include motion, forces, machines, energy, heat, wave motion, noise and music, electricity, magnetism, electromagnetic waves, the properties of light, and an introduction to nuclear physics. May be used by prospective medical school students to help them prepare for many questions that appear in the MCAT. Material in the text that applies to the MCAT as well as material specific to college-level introductory physics is marked with an asterisk.	Reg. ~~$16.99~~ On Sale! $13.65

Bookkeeping the Easy Way Presents a simplified, step-by-step approach to bookkeeping principles. The book also concentrates on instructing owners of small businesses who keep their own records.
