Teacher Comments about Math Book on Solving Logarithms
Teacher Comments
Dear Dan,
Now this is the kind of math "text" I like! It is the best explanation of
logarithms I've seen and I'm definitely circulating among the others in my
department. It is very concrete and doesn't leave 'holes' to be filled in or
guessed. Thank you for making this available. I much appreciate the time and
effort you have put into this.

Dear Dan,
I'm a student at Technological University in Stockholm enrolled in real
estate
management program. I really would love to thank you for such an amazing
explanation
of logarithms! Your book was a lifesaver for me, especially when you
explained usage of
natural logarithms when calculating continuously compounded returns. Now
it's all clear!
Best regards,

Hi Dan,
I rec'd my books and your letter with the corrections (also got the email -
thanks). I made
the corrections. 1 book is on my shelf, one on the dept. head's shelf, and
we are routing
the third book so everyone in the dept. is aware of it. Already, we have
people "fighting"
over who gets it first. Everyone loves it. Collectively, we want to thank
and commend
you, as a classroom teacher, for taking on this monumental task and for
producing such a
high quality product. The dept. is delighted that I pursued the link in the
Math Forum
Newsletter and discovered this gem.
Again, for myself and our entire dept. - Thanks! (and good luck with future
distribution!)

Dan -
You had shared your logarithm handbook with me at Stacey Armstrong's CS
session in June. I wanted to let you know I very much enjoyed it, and found
several items of interest that I had either forgotten or never been taught
at all. I would like to encourage you to publish it in some fashion or
otherwise make it available. There are many important connections to be
made, and your work does a good job of clearly explaining the why's that so
many textbooks leave out.
Many Thanks,
