This new ADVANTAGE SERIES of C. L. Johnston, Alden T. Willis, and Gale M. Hughes' DEVELOPMENTAL MATHEMATICS is a traditional, straight-forward, extremely popular book which is noted for its one-step, one-concept-at-a-time approach. All major topics are divided into small sections, each with its own examples and often with its own exercises--an approach that helps students master each section before proceeding to the next one. As part of the ADVANTAGE SERIES, this version will offer all the quality content you've come to expect from Johnston, Willis, and Hughes sold to your students at a significantly lower price.
Excellent math book even if your not a math person, I would highly recommend it to anyone in High School or Beginning College
The best basic review book I've used.

I've used this text book to hone and review my basic math skills. It happened to also be a good review and reference book for the GMAT exam if you have the extra time to study. If you do all of the section excercise problems you can really become good at all of the individual topics. It's also a good book if you're weak at certain basic math skills such as decimal conversion to fractions, square roots, reducing fractions, exponents and radicals, polynomials, solving quadtratic equations by factoring and other basics.
