Summary: What are the advantages of adopting a book that has been used in classrooms across the United States for 17 years? Probably the most significant advantage is that the authors through experimentation have tried to find the optimum procedures for presenting solid (and sometimes complicated) mathematical concepts at a level that can be understood by students who are not mathematical experts. Little things do make a difference, and here are a few of the many procedures that make the teaching learning process in this book easier for both the teacher and the student.
