Description

This title presents boiled-down essentials of the top-selling "Schaum's Outline" series for the student with limited time. What could be better than the bestselling "Schaum's Outline" series? For students looking for a quick nuts-and-bolts overview, it would have to be "Schaum's Easy Outline" series. Every book in this series is a pared-down, simplified, and tightly focused version of its predecessor. With an emphasis on clarity and brevity, each new title features a streamlined and updated format and the absolute essence of the subject, presented in a concise and readily understandable form. Graphic elements such as sidebars, reader-alert icons, and boxed highlights stress selected points from the text, illuminate keys to learning, and give students quick pointers to the essentials. The features include: designed to appeal to underprepared students and readers turned off by dense text; cartoons, sidebars, icons, and other graphic pointers get the material across fast; concise text focuses on the essence of the subject; delivers expert help from teachers who are authorities in their fields; perfect for last-minute test preparation; and so small and light that they fit in a backpack!
