Mathematics: Yes You Can! is a
self-help book for community college, university, or high school
students who are hesitant, anxious, or terrified at the thought of
taking math. The approach in the book is firmly grounded in psycology, and gives students probable rationale for past trouble with math and a way to turn it around. The premise that experiences are instrumental in the formation of personal beliefs that directly affect behavior is the overriding theme. Emphasis is places on thinking rather than memorizing, self-talk, learning styles and study skills. From the first day of class, students will develop a personal strategy for success. At the conclusion, they will be encouraged to recognize and accept themselves as able to do math.
