I'm new to /sci/ and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on a beginner's algebra book?
I suck at Algebra and its always bothered me and I want to improve.

They're are only a couple things you should really focus on:
Arithmetic on fractions
Working with nested fractions
polynomial arithmetic
Factoring and solving polynomials
Polynomial long division
Everything else is formulas or covered later (in precalc or LA or calculus)
