Unlike traditional textbooks it provides a combination of explanations, exploration and real-life applications of major concepts.

    Mathematics for Finance, Business and Economics discusses elementary mathematical operations, linear and non-linear functions and equations, differentiation and optimization, economic functions, summation, percentages and interest, arithmetic and geometric series, present and future values of annuities, matrices and Markov chains.
