Need to learn maths...

[skiba]

Can anyone recommend a good book? I haven't done any since uni, and that was financial analysis which is actually what I need to re-focus on. Any great books out there that start from scratch again?
Thanks

Let me try and be more clear, I work in a bank and want to move into a position that will likely require more financial statement analysis, I would imagine things such as ROI/ROCE/gearing etc. nothing too hectic but probably some equations etc. I just want a basic maths refresher book. Cheers!

Try 'Financial Accounting for Decision Makers' by Peter Atrill and Eddie McLaney. Covers all the ratios you mentioned.

This is exactly what i'm after, thanks very much and thanks to everyone else, some interesting links I will check out.

Thanks, a couple of good links there also.

I did cover all of this in my degree in investment management / accounting in the first year, just can't seem to find any of my books. I did GCSE maths and did fine, was never a problem, just didn't love it enough to do it at A-Level.
