Book: All the Math You'll Ever Need



One Handy Math Book

This book was recommended in a reputable homeschooling book that leaned more towards unschooling. We highly recommend it.

Here is a review:
"Great book! All of the calculations are written out so the logic behind them is clear. The writing itself is playful and makes the work seem not too serious. This book is definitely for math for everyday life, and the only unfortunate oversight is that there is no chapter on probability. Otherwise, this book is an excellent reference guide, and it doesn't weigh much."
