Description:Most colleges and universities now require their non-science majors to take a one- or two-semester course in mathematics. Taken by 300,000 students annually, finite mathematics is the most popular. Updated and revised to match the structures and syllabuses of contemporary course offerings, Schaum's Outline of Beginning Finite Mathematics provides a thorough review-- with worked examples--of the fundamentals of linear equations and linear growth. Topics covered include games theory, descriptive statistics, normal distribution, probability, binomial distribution, and voting systems and apportionment.
