- Kiselev's Algebra I$44.95
Covers much of the same ground
- Elementary Algebra$69.95
The 1908 single volume goes further on logarithms, inequalities and compound interest, but it has no functions and no graphs — the material of this book’s chapters 2 and 3.
These overlap heavily. Each note says what that book has which this one does not — the differences are what decide between them.
