Review title: This is how Math should be.
Product review: I was elated upon receipt of this fantastic book.I used this book in Junior High School and learned algebra quite thoroughly. My teacher at the time had us do at least 50 problems a night on each topic, which was quite valuable in learning how to solve algebra problems. I currently teach 8th grade and use a much inferior book from Pearson that has many color graphics and a fancy layout, but sadly, not as much good content. I supplement form Dressler often. His conceptual and careful approach is terrific. If our students returned to these Amsco classics instead of the new web-based fancy graphic books, our students would learn math and excel in ancillary subjects that rely heavily on these concepts, like chemistry and physics. If you are motivated and willing to practice a lot, get this book and learn algebra!
