These lessons were originally produced at Shady Side Academy, Pittsburgh, Pa., and sponsored by the Buhl Foundation, Pittsburgh, Pa. They represent a carefully developed, rigorous, axiomatic approach to Algebra directed toward the serious student of mathematics. These lessons can be used, in conjunction with a teacher and a textbook, in an on-line setting or in a closed network system, either at the high school or college level.
