Summary: Everyday Math for Dummies is good... if you're not so dumb.
Review: If many of the mathematical skills you learned in school are just sitting there at the edge of your brain, this book is probably for you. However, if you're trying to retrieve something you haven't done in years and are looking to be shown the hard math skills, you won't find it here.

Summary: On the money
Review: The really strong feature of this book is the attention to consumer finance issues, like credit card management and car leasing. You probably don't care about trigonometry once you're out of high school, but you WILL want to save money buying a car. Also, don't miss the chapter on gambling!
