I've got lots of good math books to recommend. However, giving beginners too much information would make them more confused.

So, only two recommendations for you, one book, one website:

1) If I'm only allowed to recommend one math book to beginners, It'll definitely be:

What is Mathematics - by Richard Courant and Herbert Robbins

Take a look at the review by Albert Einstein. Yes, Albert Einstein!

http://www.amazon.com/Mathematics-Elementary-Approach-Ideas-...

2)BetterExplained

This site explains math intuitively unlike the traditional formal approach.
