From start to finish, it's organized to help you focus your study time where you need the most help, so you can retain more, and earn higher scores:

• Key Topics icons flag every figure, table, or list you absolutely must understand and remember
• Chapter-ending Exam Preparation sections deliver even more exercises and troubleshooting scenarios
