In preparing this course, the authors consulted widely with mathematics teachers in Nigeria, at a series of intensive workshops held in schools throughout the country. As a result this new edition provides an excellent basis for students working towards the examination to be taken at the end of Basic Education. It also lays a solid foundation for success in the Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination in General Mathematics.

The new edition provides:

  • a new clearer layout, making the text more approachable and engaging
  • content to raise awareness of the global issues identified in the UBE syllabus
  • clear and accessible language for ease of understanding
  • carefully graded questions in three levels of difficulty to cater for mixed ability classes
  • suggestions of teaching and learning materials at the start of each chapter to help teachers
  • preliminary chapters which outline the topics that should be covered before starting each book
  • more use of fully-worked examples, thereby giving students a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts
  • revision exercises, which provide greater opportunities for students of differing abilities to reach their full potential
  • chapter summaries which aid students' recall and revision of the most salient points learnt
  • complete answers which have been checked for accuracy
  • a curriculum-matching chart which indicates at a glance where the curriculum topics are covered in the text.
