Students will learn basic math skills, the use of measurement systems, and strategies of problem solving needed in health science courses. This text is designed for active learning--students are asked to answer questions that follow the introduction of each new topic. Students can compare their responses with the answers provided in the margins to know if they are ready to go on to the next subsection. Exercise sets and self-tests, with their answers, are also provided. Proportions are used extensively; dimensional analysis is emphasized.
