With its complete, interactive, objective-based approach, Basic College Mathematics is the best-seller in this market. The Eighth Edition provides mathematically sound and comprehensive coverage of the topics considered essential in a basic college math course. Furthermore, the Instructor's Annotated Edition features a comprehensive selection of instructor support material. The Aufmann Interactive Method is incorporated throughout the text, ensuring that students interact with and master the concepts as they are presented. This approach is especially important in the context of rapidly growing distance-learning and self-paced laboratory situations.

This textbook is an expanded textbook, containing another book within. This is called a "Custom Edition" by the publishers.

The Math Study Skills Workbook, 2nd Edition is at the rear of the book. This best-selling workbook, helps traditionally unsuccessful students learn to effectively study mathematics. Typically used for a Math Study Skills course, Freshman Seminar, or as a supplement to class lectures, the Nolting workbook helps students identify their strengths, weaknesses, and personal learning styles in math. Nolting offers proven study tips, test-taking strategies, a homework system, and recommendations for reducing anxiety and improving grades.

This textbook is interactive with Eduspace, Houghton Mifflin's online learning tool. A separate companion CD is available on that site should a course require it as well.
