Essentials of College Algebra by Lial, Hornsby, and

of college algebra and their graphs, starting with a strong review
of intermediate algebra concepts and ending with an introduction to
systems and matrices. This brief version of the College Algebra,

compact and less expensive book for courses that do not
include the more advanced topics covered in the longer book.

Focused on helping readers develop both
the conceptual understanding and the analytical skills necessary to
experience success in mathematics, the authors present each
mathematical topic in this text using a carefully developed
learning system to actively engage students in the learning
process. The book addresses the diverse needs of today's students
through a clear design, current figures and graphs, helpful
features, careful explanations of topics, and a comprehensive
package of available supplements and study aids.
