Here is very practical, everyday math book for the everyday person. No jargon or technical terms, just useful math with easy calculations for day-to-day life situations-whether is banking, taxes, investments, or tipping at a restaurant.

The author has divided the book into three parts-Personal finance, Outdoor math and Indoor Math. Personal Finance covers everything from balancing a check book to calculating payments, loans, and planning retirement, all explained in understandable, simple style.

Outdoor math includes tipping, currency, measurement and temperature conversions for foreign travel, miles per gallon `car math', and math for hobbies, games and gambling, with a great introduction to probability.

Indoor math, the most interesting section of the book, is about price fluctuations, comparison shopping, easy computations for doing almost any job around the house (example: how to cut a round table cloth), and making sense out of descriptive, detailed, and confusing bills.

An all-around fun book and easy reading for any one who may want some help in figuring it all out!
