"I am thrilled to bring you the fifth edition of Culinary Math. Julia Hill decided to retire from writing after 22 years of authoring this textbook together. Her influence remains a huge part of this edition. I have used the fourth edition with my Menu Planning and Controls students at the State University of New York at Delhi since it was published. This new edition is the result of that. I truly enjoy teaching students the applied math concepts covered in this textbook. Many of them begin college without confidence in their ability to learn math. Learners who have chosen the foodservice industry as their career path have a unique advantage when they learn the concepts covered in this textbook. They gain the knowledge necessary to correctly complete the calculations associated with a successful foodservice operation while discovering that they are more capable of understanding math than they thought. It is amazing to witness this realization. This new edition offers more - more practice and more insight. More practice means more support for learners who need an opportunity to work up to more difficult problems with introductory practice. In addition to the new practice and homework problems, content has been clarified, and student success tips are now at the beginning of every chapter practice section"-- Provided by publisher.
