Essential Homework Aid
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
As with the Barron's Science Study Dictionary, this little book is a must have study aid for both the math student and the parent wanting to help with a foggy memory of algebra concepts, etc. This particular guide is invaluable for understanding basic math concepts, looking up number properties, centralized formulas and charts, etc. It works well for both middle school and high school math students and makes a handy teacher reference as well.
Perfect Math Desk Reference Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I am studying to pass a teacher certification test for High School Math. Barron's Mathematics 129 page book is the perfect desk reference. It is a mini-encyclopedia of remarkable scope. Descriptions are short, informative, and interesting. Brief examples, diagrams and simple English explanations are precise and clear. Hundreds of fast math facts through pre-calculus. Don't throw out your math books that go into more depth but for quick lookups this book can't be beat.
A great book!

This "dictionary" is really more than a book of word meanings. Explanations are detailed and well-written. The index and table of contents make it very easy to find exactly what you are looking for. I use this book in my math classes all the time. The information is grouped around similar topics. Well worth the purchase price.
Great book

Helps to explain what a derivative and denominator is in terms that you and your children can understand. More than just the number on the bottom of a fraction.
An indispensible reference
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
My 12 year old (who hates math) picked up this book and said "awesome!" My 17 year old, who is taking pre-calculus, was fascinated - exclaiming, "I never knew that about circles!"This study dictionary defines and explains mathematical terms and functions in a comprehensive, dictionary-style format. The information is geared for students from pre-algebra through college.This is simply a reference that every student should have. The definitions and illustrated examples are grouped by concept. When you look up a term, you will find it on a page with all the other terms related to the same mathematical function. For example, the word "denominator" will be found under "fractions". In fact, just reading the definitions on any given page is a good introduction to the subject. A comprehensive 'wordfinder' index at the begining of the book directs you to the right page. This book would be a bargain at twice the price. (It probably will make more sense to your kids than the explanations in their textbooks).
