There is plenty of material that can be used for discussion in the Critical Thinking Questions. The handbook is a great tool for use on tests when tables are required. The Self-Paced Worksheets and extra word problems in the handbook are helpful for students wanting to test themselves with more material. The additional homework assignments in the back provide a wealth of extra problems for students who want more problems to work. The Money Tips in the Chapter Openers are a good addition.
Students are always eager for suggestions on saving money.
I have examined several texts and have found no Math text superior to the Slater text. The level of rigor is very appropriate to the chapter content. Overall the chapter presentation is excellent. The addition of the Money Tips is brilliant, and the Business Math Scrapbook is effective. It is my opinion that the chapters are well organized and the writing style certainly is written where a student without the basics, or has been out of school for awhile, should understand it.
