## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wish
*by E***R on February 17, 2010*

I wish I had this book when I was in 5th and 7th grade. I'm not good at math. In fact I have listed on my lifetime things to do list, be good at math. Mark Ryan's book Everyday Math for Everyday Life... is helping me in a big way to reach that goal. I like the approach that the author takes. He's not just telling you how to work a math problem, he's also explains why the process works and in some cases he addresses common mistakes made when trying to solve problems. I'd recommend this book for anyone who wants to use mathemathics to enhance their everyday life.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Middle of the pack for math guides
*by J***S on May 8, 2015*

This is a decent math overview, but there are better math books out there. There were a few things that he didn't cover. A mistake that a baseball fan like myself caught: On page 137, he makes an oversimplified analysis of the odds of coming back from 3-0 in a World Series,arguing that it's not that difficult. He says it's not that difficult and gives the possibility as about 1 in 20, 6.25% (1/2 to the 4th power). If this number seems rather high, well that's because it is. In baseball, only once has a team come back from 3-0 in any series (the book was written before the Red Sox comeback in 2004). Total record: 1 for 33. In basketball, the team that has fallen behind is now 0 for 111, after Portland lost to Memphis last week. Putting aside the obvious (to most of us) fact that the team that goes ahead 3-0 is usually superior team, there are psychological effects to a series that statistics can't exactly quantify.More importantly, he discusses standard deviation but never explains how to calculate it. That's one of the most important subjects in math and it's a glaring error or oversight. Conclusion: this book is fairly useful , but not the best out there.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Didn't help me
*by K***Y on February 11, 2021*

I must be math resistant. It didn't improve my math skills I thought it would.
