Can somebody please help me with this? It would be much appreciated!

Hey guys, the title basically says it all! I'm looking for a book to work along side Serge Lang's basic Math's book. Something which goes into topics more in depth. I'm out of scratch with my Math's :( Hope someone can point me to a good text! Luke

Is anybody out there?! :-p

These replies will be a massive help, I'm going to set a couple hours aside tomorrow evening and I'll give it a whirl! I would still however like another but with abit more depth, just to get through it all with a better understanding and abit quicker. Does anyone have a suggestion for me and...

I did Math's at school but that was 6 years ago now. And let's just say I didn't give it any effort (which I massively regret!) I did pass with a C though but I've pretty much forgotten it all! Could you please recommend a book to work along side with 'basic mathmatics'? Thanks to the both...

Hey guys and garls. I've recently purchased Serge Langs 'Basic Mathematics' and I'm embarrassed to say I am not finding it all that basic! Could someone give me a solid discription on how to find Associativity and Commutativity in basic problems so i can progress! If I put a basic problem up...

Hey there everyone! I posted here a while back with basically the same query but I can find the post and I'm now ready to get my *** into gear! I'm 21 years old, In school i wasn't the best behaved child, I regularly skipped it which i most certainly regret now! Anyways, in Maths i managed to...

Im wanting to get a solid maths background to start physics. I've pretty much forgotten everything. Would you recommend starting with Algebra?

Thanks a lot for the reply! ill look into getting them :))

Hello, I'm wanting to get a solid maths background so i can pursue physics but I've pretty much forgotten everything i learned at GCSE level. Can you please recommend a beginners calculus book and a more advanced Calculus for when I've done. Any other Maths topics i should be looking into...
