Algebra and Trigonometry with Analytic Geometry (11th Edition with CD-ROM)
"There is about the right number of exercises, and there is a nice number of applications each time. The 'stories' attached to the application exercises are well developed and meaningful. I also like the use of illustrations to clarify the exercises. It is very helpful."    "The exercises are well chosen and connect well with the text. They also go nicely from easier to harder at basically the right pace."    "This text is carefully written. It does not oversimplify, but it is still accessible.""Many mathematics textbooks are too concerned with rigor at the expense of understanding. This book has an adequate mix of rigor and conceptual development for comprehension."
