Finite Mathematics

Stefan Waner and Steven Costenoble's text is designed to address the considerable challenge of generating enthusiasm and developing mathematical sophistication in an audience that is often ill-prepared for and alienated by the traditional applied mathematics courses offered on many college campuses. This edition retains its conversational style and focus on real data and real world applications of mathematics. The wealth of applications, the highly effective integrated, yet optional, use of graphing calculators or spreadsheets and the robust supplemental website.
