Haese & Harris Publications, 2008. - 936 pages. 2nd Edition
Mathematics for the Inteational Student: Mathematics HL has been written to reflect the syllabus for the two-year IB Diploma Mathematics HL course. It is not our intention to define the course. Teachers are encouraged to use other resources. We have developed the book independently of the Inteational Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) in consultation with many experienced teachers of IB Mathematics. The text is not endorsed by the IBO.
This second edition builds on the strengths of the first edition. Many excellent suggestions were received from teachers around the world and these are reflected in the changes. In some cases sections have been consolidated to allow for greater efficiency. Changes have also been made in response to the introduction of a calculator-free examination paper. A large number of questions, including some to challenge even the best students, have been added. In particular, the final chapter contains over 200 miscellaneous questions, some of which require the use of a graphics calculator. These questions have been included to provide more difficult challenges for students and to give them experience at working with problems that may or may not require the use of a graphics calculator.
