Handy and Comprehensive !
The Dictionary of Mathematics terms, 2009 third edition, by Douglas Downing can be held in one hand palm as it weighs little, about the same size as the Texas Instruments TI-83 plus. It covers mathematics covered in High School and the early years of College : Exponent and Logarithm, Algebra, Geometry,Analytic Geometry, Trigonometry,Calculus(mostly one variable),Probability and Statistics, Logic, Matrices and Vectors, some formulas in the Appendix. Demonstrations of important theorems (e.g. Pythagorean) are included and a list of Symbols to identify unfamiliar symbols. Entries are written in Capital letters. Excellent value .

Bought as a reference
I wasn't looking to be the next Einstein and got this book to use only as a reference. It hasn't made me smarter yet; but, for the price it has not failed to provide me with an answer I could use when dealing with math terms.

lots of visual representations along with concise wording and covers a lot of different stuff. (Not a math expert but seems a full and comprehensive text.)

This is a great book. I sometimes have trouble remembering all the mathematical terms. With this I can look them up fairly quickly to refresh my memory.

Math
This book serves best as the quick reference to mathematics in general. I learned a lot about mathmatics a long time ago but I've forgotten almost all. When I browse thru this math dictionary,I feel like coming anywhere closer to recollection of what I had learned about math. The recollection has brought me to further study of past math learning.In this regard, the book is the most useful.
