"Why is it that buses come in threes while good maths books never come along? Well not now. Ilan Samson takes a fresh look at mathematics - taking the mystery out and putting the magic back in. Entertaining, engaging and utterly enthralling. Maths as you never saw it before - make sure you hide it from the kids."
Barry Lewis, Director Maths Year 2000; President, Mathematical Association.
“…most interesting and lively… …giving many insights and examples…that make it a stimulating read...an excellent read for the maths teacher /lecturer to help with their teaching of mathematical topics [and] very helpful to a wider audience …written in a delightful style” Professor David Burghes
You are afraid of mathematics not because you could not do it but because you were given instructions without their reasons. These reasons are simple.
Demathtifying is where you will find them.
The Author
Ilan Samson studied physics and music, specialized in Operations Research (application of mathematical methods to optimizing solutions of rational real-life problems), and now makes the rare existence from inventing products that actually get realized worldwide.
This uncommon background should be a promising source of a fresh approach to breaking down the barrier between most people and Mathematics.
