Infos

Intermediate Algebra: Concepts and Applications helps you understand and apply mathematical concepts, preparing you to transition from skills-based math to the more concept-oriented math you'll need for college-level courses. The authors' approach encourages the critical-thinking skills needed to achieve this: the ability to reason mathematically, communicate mathematically, and identify/solve mathematical problems.

The 11th Edition features carefully reviewed and revised narrative, examples and exercises. Abundant new features include more resources for review and preparation, while maintaining the strong emphasis on critical thinking and making connections between concepts.

Professor Bittinger has authored numerous textbooks on topics ranging from basic mathematics to algebra and trigonometry to applied calculus. He received his BA in mathematics from Manchester College and his PhD in mathematics education from Purdue University. Special honors include Distinguished Visiting Professor at the United States Air Force Academy. His hobbies include hiking in Utah, baseball, golf and bowling. Professor Bittinger has also had the privilege of speaking at many mathematics conventions, most recently giving a lecture entitled "Baseball and Mathematics." In addition, he also has an interest in philosophy and theology, particularly in apologetics. Professor Bittinger currently lives in Carmel, Indiana with his wife Elaine. He has 2 grown and married sons, Lowell and Chris, and 4 granddaughters. David Ellenbogen has taught math at the college level for nearly 30 years, spending most of that time in the Massachusetts and Vermont community college systems, where he has served on both curriculum and developmental math committees. He has taught at St. Michael's College and The University of Vermont. Professor Ellenbogen has been active in the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) since 1985, having served on its Developmental Mathematics Committee and as a delegate. He has been a member of the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) since 1979. He has authored dozens of texts on topics ranging from prealgebra to calculus and has delivered lectures on the use of language in mathematics. Professor Ellenbogen received his bachelor's degree in mathematics from Bates College and his master's degree in community college mathematics education from The University of Massachusetts - Amherst. In his spare time, he enjoys playing piano, biking, hiking, skiing and volunteer work. He currently serves on the boards of the Vermont Sierra Club and the Vermont Bicycle Pedestrian Coalition. He has 2 sons, Monroe and Zachary. Barbara Johnson has taught math at the college and high school level for nearly 40 years. She is currently a lecturer in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis, where she also serves as coordinator for the Mathematics for Elementary Teachers course sequence. She received her BS in mathematics from Bob Jones University, her MS in mathematics from Clemson University, and her PhD in Educational Studies from Ball State University. Dr. Johnson's research focuses on affect in mathematics education. Her other interests include gardening, karate and hiking.
