By using the internet and TI resources, you will find enough TI-89 algebra tutorials and examples that make purchasing this book unnecessary. Save your money.

This is a great reference book when using the TI-89 calulator. When detailed information is needed this book has the answers for advanced Algebra.

This book places more emphasis on the calculators ability to do the work for you, it doesn’t explain what the calculator is doing in order to get the solution.
Its really aimed at high school kids who don’t have any knowledge of calculus and the mathematical jokes don’t win any prizes. Overall I would reccomend you go for a maths book and not this book.

It’s not just algebra, there is some statistics also. For the most part not well layed out. I would pass on this one.

The book was helpful in learning how to solve matrices and other advanced algebra problems. It also had some mathematical history jokes which were appropriate. It gave some very helpful steps in learning the details of the TI-89, and the easiest way to use it. I would recommend this book to other students, either high school, or college level to gain insight into their TI-89 before using it in class.
