Finally, a book that brings mathematics down to earth and illustrates how abstract financial concepts relate to our everyday lives! I personally enjoyed this class when I was a student and my children in turn have enjoyed the practical math found in Consumer Mathematics. The chapters offer thought provoking questions and tips on how to wisely use and budget your money in everyday situations. This course should be taken by every high school student! ~Amber
