Saxon Math
Saxon math texts
A reader from Utah says, "I used the Saxon books through all of my High school math courses, and think they are *the* best way to learn algebra and higher math. I am now in graduate school, soon to get my PhD in theoretical biophysics. Learning math so well in high school put me far ahead in college. I also tutor out of the Saxon books (and others, depending on which schools the kids attend), and the Saxon kids are far ahead of the others in terms of retention and understanding."

With step-by-step instructions and examples, the author shows how to solve simple equations and how to factor quadratic polynomials. The book also features a brief tour of math beyond algebra, including an introduction to integral and differential calculus.
