Book Reviews of Geometry the Easy Way (Barron's Easy Way)
Book Review: It is the best book for the high school kids.
Summary: 4 Stars
I read the book form the library. The book has all types of examples. It has details and illustrations which helps in developing skills. I am sure that you would be glad to add in your collection.Book Review: From a determined learner's point of view
Summary: 3 Stars
I have taken geometry in high school and still had a bit of knowledge about it (even though I had to take it twice). This book takes a lot of concentration if you are not familiar with geometry, there are a LOT of typo's which is sad that someome who is trying to learn geometry is recognizing this, and if you don't notice it, it will take you down the wrong path or confuse you. But I definitely did learn from this book. In conclusion if you have someone to ask questions this book is great, and will improve your skills. If you are on your own and don't know the subject I don't recommend this book. I also think some of the things in this book could be explained a lot better than they were.Book Review: A very dry read, definitely not easy
Summary: 2 Stars
I don't recommend this book for beginners. First it's the kind of book where you have to read the chapters several times before you 'get it'. The exercises are complicated and confusing. For someone who hasn't picked up a geometry book in decades - look elsewhere.Book Review: Don't waste your time
Summary: 1 Stars
I have always sailed through math courses.
I ordered this book to review for my upcoming job teaching HS Geometry
at a new school. I couldn't believe this book! Not only is this NOT the
easy way, but it leaves huge holes in guided practice. Where are the
notes about how to properly work out these proofs? There aren't any. Unless you are good at totally figuring this stuff out by yourself, don't buy this book. There are many typos also, which is a big red flag!
Book Review: This book was a blotch on Barron's record!
Summary: 1 Stars
I read this book along with the other books of Barron's The Easy Way series. I thought the others were much better, and introduced the subjects they covered in a better way. I especially enjoyed Douglas Downing's fantasy novel setting. I thought this book was in a textbook fashion, not in a way that encourages readers to read and understand the content.
