Book excerpt: This new edition of Chambers Adult Learners' Guide to Numeracy is aimed at adults who lack confidence in their numeracy skills, now in a new, more accessible format.

The book is based around the "Skills for Life" numeracy curriculum created by the Department for Education and Skills.
