Reviews / Votes
"The new appendix on personal finance and taxes is helpful. This is a topic that really isn't covered in other textbooks, but students desperately need to know about it."--Nina D. Miville, University of Miami
"I like the large number of problems and the inclusion of those that enable practice with spreadsheets. I prefer the problems in this text to the one that we are using. I also very much like the inclusion of numerical answers in the back of the text."
--Linda Chattin, Arizona State University
