"Have you ever suddenly become "stuck" and not remembered how to divide a fraction or turn a fraction into a percentage? Or, have you taken a graduate statistics course and discovered that you can't remember any of the terminology or techniques from a calculus course you took years ago? If either of these scenarios sounds familiar, then this book will provide you with the quick and easy review that you need.". "This reference book has math topics ranging from arithmetic through calculus arranged alphabetically by topic. Each topic is provided with a definition, explanation, and an example or two of how to solve a particular problem using the topic's technique. Depending on the degree of difficulty of the topic, this material is covered in one or two paragraphs to several pages.". "To further facilitate learning, the topics are cross-referenced so that the reader can backtrack to easier topics if the current one is too difficult. This book is a "mathematics tutor-in-a-book" and provides a reliable reference for any researcher or manager who works with numbers or needs a review of mathematical concepts."--BOOK JACKET.
