Basic Math for Social Scientists

Aimed at providing readers who want a quick refresher course in mathematics with an informal review Timothy M. Hagle′s volume offers dozens of worked-out examples of such mathematical concepts as algebra sets limits continuity differential calculus multivariate functions partial derivatives integral calculus and matrix algebra. In addition Hagle provides problem sets so that readers can practice their grasp of standard mathematical procedures (answers to these problem sets are contained in the appendixes). Written in a friendly style Basic Math for Social Scientists: Problems and Solutions provides readers with an informal approach to mathematical procedures without proofs.
