ANOTHER INVITATION TO RECONSTRUCTED WEB SITE:
WWW.MOSCOWTOCHICAGO.COM

Part II

The newly renovated web site is providing the opportunity to purchase one or both of Anna V. Epelbaum book-’MATHEMATICS’.
Below is the picture of the author and introductions to two volumes in the order of their appearance (first introduction to the first volume, the second-to the second).

INTRODUCTION


This book doesn't pretend to change curricula. The main goal of this book to fill out the gap between what is precisely explained during high school period, and what is required by official authorities from high school graduates in the area of mathematics.
This book should be very useful for high schools', as well as, for junior colleges' students. It should be very useful for adults, who want to get their GED. It can be also very useful for high school teachers of mathematics, who want, and need to refresh their teaching skills, and, maybe, even for those professors of mathematics, who, due to some reasons, didn't get solid background in the mathematical foundation, and have, therefore, difficulties in their creative scientific activities.
The book consists of two parts:
Part I covers everything from zero level of mathematical knowledge to the sufficient level of knowledge to pass successfully SAT and ACT tests. This book includes six separate part-courses: 1. Arithmetic, 2. Word Problems, 3. Algebra, 4. Geometry and Trigonometry, 5. Functions and Graphs, 6. Sets, Statistics, and Probability.
Specific emphasis is made in the book on correct usage of calculators (simple calculator, and graphing scientific calculator), and all theoretical knowledge, which students need to possess prior to the beginning of these usage;
Part II covers material from the successful scores in basic ACT and SAT tests up to the entrance's requirements of the most sophisticated colleges and universities. This part includes six courses - the advanced continuation of the courses of the previous part (Part I), and also Appendix, which presents some sophisticated, and very educational problems (with solutions) to illustrate goals of presented by that book (Part II) six courses.

Both books have a lot of examples, many of which are taken from SAT, ACT, SAT I, SAT II, SAT III tests of previous years to illustrate all parts of these books in logical order of its presentation. Subsequently, these books provide all theoretical explanation, and often their precise proofs, which students need in order to understand, and to utilize corresponding areas of mathematics, knowledge and ability to master which are required by official curricula.

The author of this book got her mathematical training, and experience in mathematical school, organized, and supervised by The Mathematical Faculty of The Moscow State University, then was graduated from this Department of Moscow State University, and then taught in this school, prior of her own Ph. D in applied mathematics. So, she intensively used in this book, as well, all generalization and examples, which this part of her training - experience provided.

INTRODUCTION

This is the second book of our courses. It includes corresponding continuation of each of the courses of the previous book, and also include APPENDIX, with brightly educational problems and their solutions.
The author hopes that all readers would find this part of the book not less, but even more useful in every day's life than the previous one.
Thank you for your interest.
Utilizing my extensive experience of chatting on this web, I can truly recommend such people as, for example, ‘wayward’ and/or ‘goodriddancegripper’ to purchase this book.
The reasons are following:
1. Those who are afraid of traditional high school mathematics mostly because it was taught pretty badly, would lose this fear, as the first volume of this book includes maximally condensed KNOWLEDGE, which are required by the high school official curricula;
2. Those, who are interested like ‘goodriddancegripper’ to unify intellectuals under his/her autocratic authority for political purposes can’t do by any other means than to absorb their intellectual abilities from their books. There is still only this old fashioned way to absorb special qualities of some exquisite brains, as one of the qualities or real intellectuals - they can’t be manipulated by different politicians or whoever else JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE exquisite intellects. So, I would strongly recommend these people to go through the second volume of my book to enhance their ability to logical and analytical thinking.

All sponsoring publishers, who should not miss the opportunity to make good money on this book (especially its first volume) in our time of uncountable standardized tests and the strict requirements to the secondary and lower college education’s accountability, are very welcome to visit the web and to publish the book.
