Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not horrible, not great...
I got this book as review of basic geometry. Mostly because they never made a Forgotten Geometry text. It's really not bad. It covers quite a bit of ground, from simple geometry to a taste of analytical and transformational geometry.
Conversely, this book didn't wow me either. It covers some basic algebra in the beginning, which is fine for the easier formulas like area and perimeter, but not nearly enough for a comprehensive study of geometry. One should study Schaum's ... Read More
Rating:  - Good for basic refresher
I bought this book as a recommended book for a masters Geometry class I was taking. While the concepts of my class were far more advanced than this book, the content of the book made remembering about the geometry and basics (probably good through hs geometry) more clear. I good book to take you through high school geometry.
Rating:  - Caution - There are Mistakes
I bought this book to use with my daughter for added drill and review of Geometry and was shocked to find an inaccurate mathematical statement after the Commutative Law of Multiplication (3a X 5 = 5 X 2a = 10a) and three errors in the solutions provided to practice questions in the first eight pages. I haven't ventured further, but based on my experience thus far, I will need to review every example and problem for accuracy, something I hadn't planned to do and shouldn't need to do.
Rating:  - Excellent if you need a refresher course in geometry
I found myself needing to review geometry for the SAT and needed a succinct, clear, and accurate guide. This outline has more than exceeded my expectations. By the time I worked through most of the problems in this book, my geometry skills had doubled and the SAT geometry was relatively easy.
I highly reccomend this book as either a refresher guide or as a textbook.
Rating: - Review and practice
This is a great way to reivew principles and then use the problems for additional practice. Some problems are fully worked, others have only the answer listed. Great addition for someone who learns best by doing problems.
