Book Reviews of Math Smart, 2nd Edition (Smart Guides)
Book Review: this book reminds me why I hated math class
Summary: 2 Stars
I finished 3/4 of this book in an attempt to make up for my math deficiencies and to do better on standardized tests. I realized to continue with the author's viewpoint would be futile since I learned to hate the book. The author does well on the early chapters of reviewing basics but stumbles in later sections. Algebra seems to be a particular problem for her to explain clearly and there are shockingly short details. In short, there are not enough explanations, examples, and working through problems. The annoying tone of the author grated on me with her quasi-cheerleading and flat jokes. I would appreciate a more comprehensive answer section which would explain the process. True math confidence can be achieved with hard work, good explanations, and repetition. This book does not deliver. My math tutor, who is a PhD in math, started to cross out sections of the book. I think that says it all.
