Professor Tussy is a member of the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges.
Review:
You have done a great job explaining to the students how to read and write mathematically. The writing component helps the student to retain the information and [it will] be helpful to them in a subsequent math course.

I really like these explanatory [author's] notes. They are similar to ones that I like to write on the chalkboard when I am lecturing. This is perhaps my favorite feature of the text. Martin-Gay does have similar explanatory notes, but Tussy/Gustafson has more detail. The authors have done a good job with this.
