You're literally a lifesaver, this gives me better guidance to pave my way into my dream uni. In the hopes of become this well rounded in maths and other things!
Great review friend! I actually have all of Chris’s books from prealgebra through the multi variable calculus. I wrote to him, through his website, when I started my journey to relearn math and he gave me some guidance on how to use his books. Now that I’ve moved on to Algebra, I’m reinforcing prealgebra but using the prealgebra workbook.
I have this book, I agree with you that it is an excellent book, especially in terms of number of exercises. However, a book with a better explanation, but less exercises, I can recommend: Plane Trigonometry, by S.L. Loney. Thanks for this video!
That's a 100 year old book. It's also way much, much more advanced. It's like comparing a real car with a toy car. The book in this video is for the very basics, almost a dummy-style book. They should not be even compared. I think 99.99% of people don't need a book like Loney. However some middle ground makes sense, i.e. more advanced and detailed books than in this video. A somewhat more or less comprehensive and serious is _Trigonometry_ by Sunstorm and Schlicker. Another example which is a simpler book but more serious and deeper than in this video is Schaum's series _Trigonometry._ However, most people probably should go with a simple book like the one recommended in this video, especially if they struggle with the topic.
The best book I have seen on trigonometry is Курс тригонометрии Андронов И.К. Окунев А.К. The Course of Trigonometry by Andronov I.K. Okunev A.K. (rough translation of the title). This book is the best textbook on trigonometry in the history of humankind. Judging from the 156 different trigonometry textbooks and books I've read.
I only wish Mr. McMullen had a Linear Algebra workbook. That would complete the set IMO. Could you recommend a good LinAlg workbook if you know of one? Thanks for another great one Sorc!
I feel that new books on mathematics or any science topic is just half-assed when it comes to writing. I've always been very fond of Soviet textbooks on mathematics, physics, geology etc., for this reason alone (Helps being able to read Russian!), but occasionally, some other countries come with amazing books. Definitely getting this book in my collection!
People must understand first what Trigonometry really is. These are SPECIAL Madhava series. We encountered our first frustration of exactness when we found ourselves with the square root of two. Taylor series where needed and then subsequently we got ourselves into Laurent series and the complex functions of Z. Well some people likes to measure the area of their grain lands too.....:D
None of the basics, algebra, trig, geometry, etc., would be at all critical if they weren't ALL fairly frequently encountered in nearly EVERY class after the basics, for any math intensive (engineering, etc.) or pure math degree plans. Very wise to get this down early. For me, basic algebra is the most common roadblock. As an aside, we can also easily see from your videos what you would like for a present: Any of these flavors of cologne - 1. Ancient Text, 2. Egyptian Papyrus, 3. 200-Year-Old Unreturned Library Book, 4. Leatherbound Tome of Antiquity.
You really make a very strong case for making sure to have the basics down-pat , because otherwise your mathematical " skill-set " will be flawed. I have suffered for years off and on , and I always thought it was just me... lol As for your more humerous comments , I almost spit my coffee through my nose , and fell off the couch. You have a future in writing sit-coms for SNL
The book Trig or Treat is an excellent book of about 300 trig proofs with solutions. The solutions assume the requisite algebraic factoring skills etc. A great book of math puzzles.
I am currently practicing Trigonometry and I can assure you to go for Cengage it's way more more better than this one I have already done 3 chapters in it Now I am left with ITF , Properties of triangle and Trigonometric equations
Hello Sir, My name is Krish and I am from India currently i am preparing for JEE exam and want some list of books which we can use to master from start to advance. Sir my trigonometry is really weak like very weak so please recommend some series of trigonometry books from basic to advance which doesn't requires much pre-requisite knowledge . And can you please make such video on algebra, coordinate geometry etc. As in India most book requires pre requisite knowledge and my maths was very weak because in past I took it as burden but now i really want to improve it and master it so please recommend some good foreign author's book form basic to advance. Thank you, Sir.
Checked on Amazon. All four books for so little money :-) The colour gradient on the main title text of the cover for the Trig one, makes it look like it was published back in the day of the air-brush. But no. . . they're much younger than that :-)
👍Hope you find time to review S L Loney Plane Trigonometry, its Solutions Book, the sequel Analytical Trigonometry, its Solutions Book. Some of these may be available as Free Downloadable PDF (If so, well within any budget) When learning first time, it really helps to solve exercises by oneself when possible, and consult the full solutions when necessary. Walking all the steps with a guide, one never feels discouraged☺
Is there a definite trigonometry textbook(s)? I would like to find textbook on the subjects most often combined together in Precalc. If only for the rare or difficult trig equalities that probably exist.
@@TheMathSorcerer Awesome! Have you heard of Make: Calculus: Build models to learn, visualize and explore by Joan Horvath and Rich Cameron? I purchased it last week and haven't really had enough time to look at it much.
to the math enjoyers seeing my comment, can y’all help me find a interesting book which introduces the foundation of math, axioms and sets? a book which describes the nature of math itself, various methods of proof, axioms etc.., and can you help me with mathematics for computer science? what’s the best book on math in cs?
'Book of Proof' by Richard Hammack covers those topics but is more intended for math students; 'Discrete mathematics with applications' by Susanna S. Epp. also covers those topics and computer science topics, great for cs students.
Finding good books for studying is hard so I apreciate these book reviews, currently in diff-eq and statics and I still struggle with trig

Currently in Trig and wanted more practice with identities. Purchased this book shortly after watching your video!
Great teacher. Trig is so important in PHYSICS. I really need to improve it.✍️✍️✍️
Trigonometry and the problems of it are awesome. Perfect to solve with a glass of hot wine or hot coffee.
I have this book, I agree with you that it is an excellent book, especially in terms of number of exercises.
However, a book with a better explanation, but less exercises, I can recommend:
Plane Trigonometry, by S.L. Loney.
Thanks for this video!
Agreed brother
Plane Trigonometry by S.L. Loney is indeed a good book.

That book is exactly what I need. Trigonometry is the one area I need to get better in.
Man you're awesome, I was looking for this kind of trig books.

I Love these books. I purchase them off Amazon, then go to my local printer and spiral bind them.
Just ordered this book. Going back to school in the near future and want to refresh my trig and calc. Thanks for the recommendation!
Glad it was helpful!
well, we started identities this week.. my mind is tired. so im buying this book thanks!
Perfect timing, you are truly a Sorcerer.
I only wish Mr. McMullen had a Linear Algebra workbook. That would complete the set IMO. Could you recommend a good LinAlg workbook if you know of one? Thanks for another great one Sorc!
I wish there were type of math books like these for more advanced students, like ODE's and PDE's.
thank you i have 10k pages to refresh/ review and this as well
Holy crap that diagram on the front of the angle sum formula just blew my mind

I recently bought a book *"Maths Formulas"* by Lara Vandini. 327 pages with all the 1300 formulas.
People must understand first what Trigonometry really is.
These are SPECIAL Madhava series. We encountered our first frustration of exactness when we found ourselves with the square root of two. Taylor series where needed and then subsequently we got ourselves into Laurent series and the complex functions of Z.
Well some people likes to measure the area of their grain lands too.....:D
Ever seen Loney’s Trig? Opinion?
Can’t beat the Brit math texts especially Todhunter(senior Wrangler!), Hardy, and Watson.
GÒT IT! LOTS of practice problems. Just exactly what works for me. Thank you. Oh, I bought his calculus workbook too. Same price. About $10.
Excellent!

Please do a review on Plane trigonometry by SL Loney
Very cool, going to look into this.
I need something like that for measure theory!
Have that book also!!! Thank U, MS!!!
You are so welcome!
My proofs books have not arrived yet, I check my P.O box everyday should be any day now!
The book Trig or Treat is an excellent book of about 300 trig proofs with solutions. The solutions assume the requisite algebraic factoring skills etc. A great book of math puzzles.

I have already done 3 chapters in it
Now I am left with ITF , Properties of triangle and Trigonometric equations
Please do this with math books that only contain word problems.
Try k.a.stroud.. for engineers , two volumes all worked from basic principles for self teaching.. examples old now Have a look in library.. 😃👍
S. L Loney's Plane Trigonometry is also great
Like front screen formula written on the book, Do derive for Sin(α+β) ^n (=?)
Great vid as always
Appreciate it!
Love ❤️ from ❤️ India 🇮🇳 ❤️ 😍 ♥️
Good recommendation!
Something about the yellow pencil I appreciate
Thank you very much sir. Really helpful video.
Hello Sir,
My name is Krish and I am from India currently i am preparing for JEE exam and want some list of books which we can use to master from start to advance.
Sir my trigonometry is really weak like very weak so please recommend some series of trigonometry books from basic to advance which doesn't requires much pre-requisite knowledge .
And can you please make such video on algebra, coordinate geometry etc. As in India most book requires pre requisite knowledge and my maths was very weak because in past I took it as burden but now i really want to improve it and master it so please recommend some good foreign author's book form basic to advance.
Thank you, Sir.
Ever heard of S.L.Loney Plane Trigonometry. It is cheaper and better and is recommended(by single digit rankers) for JEE advanced.
@@pomlesty1348 But i think its for students who already have good understanding of chapter is it basic?
sl Loney plane trigonometry
you can read from maths ncert,it is also good for basics,can also refer to elementary algebra by hall and knight
@@shadhasan9082 ok brother
@@sungjinwoo1406 I agree with shad hasan it deals with basics and gives very good concepts and theory and it was also a book used by Ramanujan Sir.
Sir please review the books for jee advanced exam written by gtewani cengage mathamtics also review jee advanced the India's toughest exam
You should review AoPS textbooks!

Show more helpful books.
Nice book:)
Is there a definite trigonometry textbook(s)? I would like to find textbook on the subjects most often combined together in Precalc. If only for the rare or difficult trig equalities that probably exist.
Just wanted to tell everyone that Chris McMullen’s books are available on Kindle Unlimited as of September 2024!
Do you think it would be helpful to have this book if you were having a hard time remembering trig identities and functions while in Calculus?
Yes, definitely!!

How’s spherical trigonometry?
try jee advanced maths problems 😒🙏🙏🙏
Which book do i need to learn arithmetic?
Nice book.Tell me the availability of this book in India.
Hmm, not sure. That's a good question.
could u [lz suggest me any trig textbooks plz make a vedio on trig books
Im in Namibia and i would love to have the book even in pdf format if its available or simply share the link.... Thankyou so much
Is there a workbook such as this, but for physics?
Hello could you recommend any book for math problem cause I find them hard to resolve (
Where can i get the book?
are you mr mcmullen himself?
Price and how to get online
Do you have the PDF of the book sir
