Book Reviews of Advanced Algebra with the TI-89
Book Review: Shows very neat tricks with the Ti-89
Summary: 5 Stars
There are 3 books in this series. Very useful in terms of showing you how to use the calculator to do very useful and powerful things. My only complaint is that it is written in a goofy childish manner, most likely in an attempt to take the stigma away from mathematics. The problem is you have to wade through 3 or 4 pages of FLUFF to get to the good stuff. However, once at the good stuff it is very good. It's sort of like having to listen to the pointless stories of a genius before he helps you :)Book Review: Grest reference book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great reference book when using the TI-89 calulator. When detailed information is needed this book has the answers for advanced Algebra.Book Review: Advanced Algebra for the TI-89
Summary: 4 Stars
The book was helpful in learning how to solve matrices and other advanced algebra problems. It also had some mathematical history jokes which were appropriate. It gave some very helpful steps in learning the details of the TI-89, and the easiest way to use it. I would recommend this book to other students, either high school, or college level to gain insight into their TI-89 before using it in class.Book Review: Advanced Algebra - I don't think so!
Summary: 3 Stars
This book places more emphasis on the calculators ability to do the work for you, it doesn't explain what the calculator is doing in order to get the solution. Its really aimed at high school kids who don't have any knowledge of calculus and the mathematical jokes don't win any prizes. Overall I would reccomend you go for a maths book and not this book.
Book Review: really not worth the investment
Summary: 2 Stars
By using the internet and TI resources, you will find enough TI-89 algebra tutorials and examples that make purchasing this book unnecessary. Save your money.
