Soft question -- I need books and exercise books that will be working on my fundamental skills.

Question

I need help, urgently. I acquired a book called: Mathematics, Its Content, Method and Meaning. Now the problems is the book doesn't provide me with any exercises. I was searching for a book that would work on fundamental skills so basic skills and then gradually progressing to more advanced skills. I really need a book that will optimize all aspects of maths skills; I seem to be very rusty, and the last time I studied maths was at GCSE, but I seem to have lost many skills -- and these skills are basic! I need to gain these skills again. And again, I want to improve every aspect that there is. I want to see every single method, too. I'll give an example: Basic Mathematics by Serge Langey. I heard the book is marred with many errors, so I am reluctant to spend my money on a "flawed gem". If I seem to be slightly nebulous, please do forgive me, as I am in a rush. Thank you, and any response is greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Having only just finished my gcse last year this book (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/1446900185/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1452527349&sr=8-3&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=gcse+maths+edexcel&dpPl=1&dpID=51TqDXPEC-L&ref=plSrch) really helped its a revison guide for all you need at gcse and it explains it all clearly and concicely. And at 3.99 at the moment its not going to break the bank, also there is another book that you can also buy with other questions in but the method is the same. Hope i helped!
