Art of Problem Solving (Just east of De Anza College)
When our home-schooled grandson entered middle school, I was his math teacher. The books we used to study are part of a curriculum designed to challenge high-performing middle and high school students. We studied together for several years, an opportunity for him to learn, for me to re-learn, and for both of us to develop and refine our relationship with each other. Ultimately, our grandson graduated at the top of his high school class and four years later graduated from Cornell University with a summa cum laude degree. While my grandson did the "heavy lifting," thanks to these books I was able to initiate the beginning of his journey. Now working for an architectural firm in San Francisco, my grandson no longer needs my mathematical guidance! While the pages are a bit dog-eared from usage, they are not marred by personal notes or markings. If purchased new today, the cost for each study book is ~$60 ($20 for each solutions book). The attached photos show the front covers of each study book and a brief description on the back cover of the target audience.
