I love your channel. I'm an older adult who has always wanted to return to the study of mathematics once I became a bit older and had some more free time. Thankfully, that time has arrived, and I'm enjoying every minute of it. I'm planning to work my way through the entire sequence of courses that make up an undergraduate mathematics education, savoring every step along the way with no pressure and no need to rush. With any luck, I'll be able to keep pushing myself and maybe even undertake graduate studies in mathematics one day. In any event, keep up the great work with your channel! 🙂
That’s extremely inspirational to hear! That’s one of my favorite parts about teaching community college. Hearing stories of people coming back to math later in life and accomplishing what they set out to do. Good luck in your journey. Keep me updated. Let me know if there are any videos I can create to help you out! Thanks for the kind words.
Based on one of your previous videos, I picked up Mathematical Ideas. I was able to pick up the student edition, instructor edition and instructor’s solution manual for a reasonable price. That book is really densely packed with mathematics! It overwhelming! I’ve decided (today) to align the topics with what I’m doing in my self study. Also, finding a copy of Elayn Martin-Gay’s Geometry (for under $100) took me forever!
Would you mind doing a video of Martin-Gay’s Geometry and/or Blitzer’s College Algebra? Once I finish Blitzer’s Algebra for college students I plan on tackling College Algebra. I’m on chapter 3 of the geometry book.
Do you know any books that are obsessive at trying to teach mathematical concepts in extremely visual, palpable and kinesthetic ways? Not only that but books that solve some problem in as many ways as possible yet they reach the same correct result. RUclips is highly lacking in recommendations like that. Thanks so much.
I've been re-learning Maths for a while now, and it surprises me that the most basic math, arithmetic, is called "pre-algebra", as if "arithmetic" is too pitifully basic to be in the title LOL. // I have that Baldor book too, it's good!
I have all of my grad school books but I don’t know where they are. Also I lost all of my undergrad books like advanced calc and abstract algebra in a house move 10 years ago.

That’s awesome to hear! I hope you enjoy the books. It’s good to have a plan on your self study and make goals!

What would you like the video to be about? Just an overview of the book?

Cool! 🎉🎉🎉

I’m also a fan of collecting textbooks mine is mostly Anatomy though!
That’s cool!
I was wondering if I am alone in this world having a complete Calculus and differential equations text book library started collecting them in 1978.
These old books are so interesting!

Baldor book is great! Many tough problems.
Don't you have textbooks on more advanced math subjects?
