Crossing the River with Dogs
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
It is a good book to do college level math work. But I wish the author or the publisher would print some or all of the answers to the math problems, when a professor assigns the math problems for the students to do in the class or as a homework assignment.
Great book! Great price!

I bought the book for a college class. It is a great book, and the price was great also (compared to the price of a used book at the book store at the university).
Worth every cent

I am a first year teacher, teaching high school math topics (Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calc, etc) and I find the problems in this book to be amazing! I have a study skills class that is required for all 10th graders. The classes have students who are in Pre-Algebra up to students taking Algebra 2 honors. I find the problems in this book to be an even playing field for all levels! The problems require the students to think and problem solve using various strategies explained throughout the book. I've recommended it to every teacher I know, and they've all agreed that this book is a must have! No matter what you teach, you can always find a handful of problems that will have the students becoming more advanced problem solvers. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Great text!

This book is a great text book. My professor loves it and I really like it too. The way it makes you think is so different than other concepts in the math realm. This book makes you think and I recommed incorporating Sodoku puzzles into your curriculum if you teach a problem solving class. I'm only a student, but they really make you think.
