Sinopse
Características

This book by the Chairman of the Mathematics Department at Princeton University covers everything that a student is likely to encounter in his school and college courses.This is the great classic work upon which many if not most of the more modern textbooks derive their source materials. It is divided into two parts: A preliminary part devoted to the number system of algebra and a principal part devoted to algebra itself.Nowadays, most colleges and universities are requiring their students to pay more than $200 to buy each of their basic math books. Even some high schools give as required reading a list of books each costing over $200 each. Just to make sure that the students cannot get away from this expense by buying used books, the publishers juggle a few of the pages annually and come out each year with a new edition.The result is our students today are spending more than one thousand dollars each semester to buy their basic textbooks.This is of course all supported by federally guaranteed student loans, which few of our students will ever be able to pay back and so the bill goes to the taxpayers and to the increase of the federal deficitThis book is reprinted in the hope of restoring sanity to the college textbook process. As there is nothing in the most recent and up-to-date college and high school algebra textbooks that is not also in this much cheaper book, we are hoping that todays college administrators will show some mercy on their students and require this book instead.
