The book features background material, as needed, on algebra, geometry and reading comprehension. There are numerous worked examples, with most of the algebraic detail included, as well as numerous illustrations. Each chapter contains a concise "Summary of Main Points", as well as exercises. These features make the book especially useful to students working on their own, or to students using the book as a supplement to a more traditional calculus text.
