This Math textbooks page is for compiling a list of textbooks for mathematics -- not problem books, contest books, or general interest books.
Contents
Math textbooks by subject
Levels of reading and math ability are loosely defined as follows:
- Elementary is for elementary school students up through possibly early middle school.
- Getting Started is recommended for students grades 6 to 9.
- Intermediate is recommended for students grades 9 to 12.
- Collegiate is recommended for college and university students.
Algebra
Getting Started
- Art of Problem Solving is currently designing an Introductory Algebra textbook.
- Algebra I: An Integrated Approach
Intermediate
- Art of Problem Solving is currently designing an Intermediate Algebra textbook.
- Algebra and Trigonometry by Michael Sullivan.
Combinatorics
Getting Started
- AoPS publishes Dr. David Patrick's Introduction to Counting & Probability textbook, which is recommended for advanced middle and high school students.
Intermediate
- Mathematics of Choice by Ivan Nevin.
Geometry
Getting Started
- AoPS publishes Richard Rusczyk's Introduction to Geometry textbook, which is recommended for advanced middle and high school students.
Intermediate
- Challenging Problems in Geometry -- A good book for students who already have a solid handle on elementary geometry.
- Geometry Revisited -- Not a traditional textbook, but close enough to list this classic.
Probability
