A poor outline on the mathematics of business
This book is too elementary for college students needing to know finite mathematics, which usually refers to the mathematics related to operations management specifically and finance in general. Also, it contains some theoretical material on set theory and the equation of a line that seem to be out of place. There is also some material on geometry that doesn't really belong. Instead, I suggest the older out-of-print "Schaum's Outline of Finite Mathematics" published in 1994 by the same author. That book... more info

Good for review only
In my opinion this book should be use for review only, and not for learning Finite math. But maybe that goes without saying for Schaum's books.
This book has MANY errors in the solutions to the supplementary questions, so a knowledge of the concepts is already important in order to identify where the authors made mistakes (in the first 46 pages alone, there are 7 incorrect solutions given).
But like I said, for reviewing what you may have learned years ago, this is a cheap resource.
