I was using the 3rd edition for my elementary algebra class but switched to this textbook for my intermediate algebra class. It is definitely more concise and the explanations are clearer than in the previous edition. Concepts are easier to grasp in this edition. So just based on content, its a good textbook although why anyone would want to buy it just for fun is beside me.
