| Publisher Description: Written to prepare high school students and college freshmen for trigonometry, analytic geometry, and calculus, Modern Algebra introduces readers to the history of algebra and its evolution into its role as the foundation supporting all branches of mathematics. Author Fung-Yuel Chang is an award-winning writer, inventor, and educator with a Doctor of Engineering Science from Columbia University. He has also received a best teaching award from that university and has advised a Rhodes Scholar who attended Oxford University. Though Chang has worked for decades in various math- and science-related fields, his biggest concern remains US high school students' low test scores in math. With Modern Algebra, he aims to better prepare students for high-tech jobs. |
