I've never read one that I'd not give at least a 3 or 4 star rating... 'till this one. My big, huge complaint? It's unreadable. My eyesight is not perfect - I use reading glasses. But the Nspire screen shots in this book are so tiny that I literally had to use a magnifying glass to read some of them! The book contains a wealth of information, but its sporadic, and not well explained. The authors use a method that would be ok to someone who already knew the Nspire or is a geek like me (I've used the TI-84 and the HP-50G, so the concepts were not foreign), but a novice would be totally lost using this book. The beautiful color pages in the middle are sexy as heck, but add no value to the book. It seems as though they were just stuck in there to hype the CX series of the Nspire. I bought the "clickpad" Nspire CAS because it was half the cost of the "touchpad" and a quarter of the "CX" series. This book mentioned the "clickpad" exactly once. (in a screenshot of its keypad). I understand this, but it still POed me, as it will the many people who are buying the Nspire "clickpad" at a bargain-basement price. I'm getting my money's worth out of this book only because I'm willing to play around with my new Nspire and try to figure out the author's poorly explained examples with magnifying glass in hand. And, its better than the TI documentation - though that's not saying much. One of the most useful sections of the book is "Part of Tens" - but most of that information I could have gotten from a google search. Flipping back through the book (which I've read cover-to-cover with my Nspire in hand), I feel I've been a bit too harsh in this review. I should have given it two stars.... 2/27/12 Ok. So I've had my TI - Nspire (Clickpad) for six months now. Also this book. When I buy a book, and own it for six months or more, and actually use it... I tend to judge it by how misused the cover is, and how bookmarked the pages are, and how many annotations I've written in its pages. All these are good, by my measure... and this book passes that mark. I constantly refer to it about Nspire questions. The Nspire clickpad CAS leaves a lot to wish for. And this book left me having to figure out many things on my own. But I liked the clickpad so much that I ordered the CX CAS version from desertcart. Let me tell you a little bit about desertcart service. I ordered my NSpire CX CAS on a Friday afternoon, and it was delivered to my door the next day at 11:30. The logistics in that delivery just blow my mind. I'm a prime member, btw. The CX CAS (touchpad) is simply much more usable than the CAS clickpad. I teach calculus, and having a graph of a function, its first derivative and its second... and in color, is such a great teaching tool. Ti-Npire for Dummies really helps with this functionality. Would I buy this book? Absolutely! Would I buy a clickpad Nspire? Its a steal for $60. But you'll be left dreaming of the touchpad version of the calculator, which is much more expensive - but worth it. Teachers, buy the CAS version (only about $10 more). Students, you can't use the CAS version on the ACT... but get it anyway, if you plan on going on to college in engineering or such. You really don't need a calculator (or just a basic one) on the ACT or SAT. But you will need a good one next year at college. And anyone who buys an Npire... should buy TI-Nspire for Dummies. Take it from a real Dummy - this is a book you'll use over and over. (I still wish the screenshots were more readable, but I fixed that with annotations.) Great book, and, after using it for six months, I've changed my review to 5 stars!!!!! Review: Love the book, hate the name... - Tis book provides very easy to understand instructions and helpful hints. I strongly recommend this book with this calculator. It will helps parents and your children. A must have, even thought the calculator is very intuitive. The reason for the books are the dealer instructions and hints.. Also, the calculator is so powerful and can do so many different functions it is unlikely that the average parent will grasp it all without this book. I have an MBA and I refer to the book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #394,524 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #89 in Mathematics Reference (Books) #160 in Handheld & Mobile Devices #10,460 in Schools & Teaching (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (420) | | Dimensions | 7.4 x 1 x 9.1 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 1118004663 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1118004661 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 384 pages | | Publication date | June 7, 2011 | | Publisher | For Dummies | ## Images ![TI-Nspire For Dummies - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61jq8TulOML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not for the novice/ changed my review... *by J***T on August 29, 2011* I'm a real fan of the "Dummies" series.

I strongly recommend this book with this calculator. It will helps parents and your children. A must have, even thought the calculator is very intuitive. The reason for the books are the dealer instructions and hints.. Also, the calculator is so powerful and can do so many different functions it is unlikely that the average parent will grasp it all without this book. I have an MBA and I refer to the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book for Nspire *by G***N on February 23, 2014* I recently purchased the TI-Nspire CX - CAS calculator - this book is an excellent addition for this complicated "calculator". The book is laid out in a good manner to teach you the use of the Nspire if you go though it from page 1 to end and also is very helpful if you look up specific functions from the index. Well worth it as the user documentation that ships with the Nspire is rather thin. The web is also a good provider of information for use of the Nspire, but I like having a hard copy of the documentation. This book provides that quite nicely with practical examples. ## Frequently Bought Together - TI-Nspire For Dummies - Guerrilla Military Grade Screen Protector 2-Pack For TI Nspire CX, CX CAS, CX II, and CX CAS II Graphing Calculator, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/1555669-ti-nspire-for-dummies](https://www.desertcart.in/products/1555669-ti-nspire-for-dummies) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
