Kaplan GRE Exam Math Workbook

Kaplan

Kaplan Publishing, 2008

Underrated
I strongly feel that some of the reviews of this book posted here are too harsh. Judging from a few of the comments, it seems that some might expect this to prepare them for the GRE Math Subject Test - which is very different from this book's intention, which is to ...

Fiske Guide to Colleges 2009 (Fiske Guide to Colleges)

Edward B Fiske

Sourcebooks, Inc., 2008

Detailed information with useful student feedback
This is one of the best college guides out there. It has a lot of great detailed information on the colleges including quotes from students. The number of colleges profiled is just right--enough to provide some options but not so many that it's overwhelming. I really ...

Arthur B. Laffer, Stephen Moore, ...

Threshold Editions, 2008

Absolutely essential that every U. S. citizen understand these principles
As we stand on the edge of socialism, the ideologues are unconcerned. The leftist is comfortable with the direction we're headed, and the capitalist despises the turn. But the great majority of us simply want to know what works. Socialism, capitalism, etc., etc., - ...

Kaplan

Kaplan Publishing, 2008

Excellent Product!
The GRE Premier Program 2009 Edition is a fantastic study guide for the GRE tests. Having the groups of words and math examples in the back of the book make it a lot easier to study. I would suggest that those word groups and math examples be pages that can be torn ...

Julia Cameron

Jeremy P. Tarcher/Putnam, 2002

Good, and the sequels are even better.
I borrowed the original from a friend and worked with it a couple of years ago. I bought the tenth anniversary edition because this year I was determined to get beyond my midlife crisis and I couldn't find this book in the library. Of course I saw the related titles in ...

Kaplan GMAT Premier Program, 2009 (Book & CD-ROM)

Kaplan

Kaplan Publishing, 2008

Worth it for the CD
First, I don't understand all the complaints about errors and typos. I did every problem in this book and understood the solutions when I read the answer explanations of problems I got wrong. I did not encounter errors. (I ultimately scored a 730.) I can't help but ...

The Princeton Companion to Mathematics

Princeton University Press, 2008

Great book
I learned about this book while I was reading a blog post on Timothy Gower's first blog post. I have read quite a bit and I think is a wonderful book. While it does lack a lot of detail. It does excel at giving a general view at what mathematics is all about. ...
