About the Author

John Coburn grew up in the Hawaiian Islands, the seventh of sixteen children. He received his Associate of Arts degree in 1977 from Windward Community College, where he graduated with honors. In 1979 he received a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from the University of Hawaii. After being lured into the business world for five years, he returned to his first love, accepting a teaching position in high school mathematics where he was recognized as Teacher of the Year in 1987. Soon afterward, the decision was made to seek a Masters Degree, which he received two years later from the University of Oklahoma. For the last fifteen years, he has been teaching mathematics at the Florissant Valley campus of St. Louis Community College, where he is now a full professor. During his tenure there he has received numerous nominations as an outstanding teacher by the local chapter of Phi Theta Kappa, two nominations to Who’s Who Among America’s Teachers and was recognized as Teacher of the year in 2004 by the Mathematics Educators of Greater St. Louis (MEGSL). He has made numerous presentations and local, state and national conferences on a wide variety of topics. His other loves include his family, music, athletics, games and all things beautiful, and hopes this love of life comes through in his writing, and serves to make the learning experience an interesting and engaging one for all students.

Horrible quality
The book is falling apart! I know it's a rental but I need it to last for my 8 week course. Im scared it's going to fall apart on me. I paid almost $40 to be able to use this book but I'm not able to even take it to class without it falling apart! Just turning the pages is difficult.

    My college aged daughter needed this math book and the university book store wanted 2x as much for the same text book. Thirty years ago when I went to college, you didn't have a choice about where to get your text books, thank god for the internet!

    1.0 out of 5 stars It is difficult to find a good math textbook
    Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I have taken many a college classes, included several math classes, and have generally done very well in all of them. It is difficult to find a good math textbook, but this one, above all, is by far the worst written math textbook I have ever encountered. To introduce concepts, the book provides one brief example then proclaims you ready to perform the assigned questions at the end of the chapter. The examples are crammed into a tiny text box and are not helpful at all! The examples are difficult to follow and the author does not provide several examples to show the different scenarios in which the concepts can arise. In short, this is one of the worst textbooks I've ever had.

    The book I got which was used, came in pretty good condition. The corners of the book were a little worn down, but that was pretty much the only thing. Overall I was very happy with the book and the price, I got.

    My book rental came with a few broken pages. The book itself has some errors but that's because of the author. It was a great book to review algebra.
