Customer Reviews
Visionary
As one of the educational consultants involved in the final editing and proof reading of Money Stuff, I was thoroughly impressed by the use of practical, relevant, real-world examples that avid readers can try out for themselves. I have no doubt it will appeal to the next generation of ambitious young women.
Links Maths to Money
As Shirley Conran’s design consultant, I started to use the advice in MONEY STUFF before the ebook was finished.
It’s innovative, fun, witty and links Maths to Money, finally putting Maths into context.
Enjoy!
fills the gap
This ebook does something that most maths books i’ve used do not. it can speak to you. every book I get given by my teacher always misses things out, or those things are written at the bottom of the page in tiny font like terms and conditions for understanding the next chapter. This book reads like an understanding teacher rather than a apathetic one. Finally!
