Business Mathematics by Kindsfather & Parish was written with the student in mind.
Presenting mathematical concepts in a clear and understandable manner is necessary in all math texts, but the business uses of mathematics are crucial when presenting math in a business context. Business Mathematics' unique approach is based on the idea that it is easier to understand how to do the math if you also understand how it is used in business.
Business Mathematics provides students with practical concepts and skills that are useful in a business career. Those same skills are useful in related business courses and for functioning in consumer markets. Business Mathematics will give students a head start in such courses as introduction to business, accounting, marketing, management, finance, and economics.
Business Mathematics' student-friendly, full color design presents a clear and accessible pedagogical program that allows students to maximize their classroom experience.
