Designed with the general reader and students in mind, this volume provides clear and concise explanations of mathematical concepts It uses the simplest, jargon-free language possible to clarify such concepts as probability and statistics, discrete mathematics, logic, and analysis Covering 1001 mathematical topics, the work covers such subjects as geometry, algebra, numbers, applied mathematics, and calculus This is a fun resource that can make most any student find something interesting in mathematics It is a concise, general work that can be used for browsing or for looking up specific topics in both high school and public libraries, Often, when one hears a scientific or mathematical reference, it usually requires a concise explanation using regular terminology Elwes (mathematics researcher, Univ of Leeds, England) gives us a shortcut to some of mathematics' most significant topics, doing for his subject what Paul Parsons did for science in Science 101: Absolutely Everything That Matters About Science in 1001 Bite-Sized Explanations As in that book, concise essays about a variety of mathematical fields--numbers, algebra, geometry, logic--are arranged here by broad topics along with more specific subjects The accessible text is written without troublesome jargon and terminology Many of the essays contain illustrations of plots, graphs, and figures The index makes it easy to find an essay if one is not particularly familiar with the hierarchy of mathematics One can rarely call a mathematics book fun, but that's exactly what Elwes's book is Appropriate for school, public, and academic collections, Absolutely fascinating Dr Elwes is brilliant at giving the reader the broad perspective, with enough details to fascinate, rather than confuse Many of the topics cover the foundations of an area of mathematics, and others cover unsolved problems, and everything in between I highly recommend this book for any student considering math as their future field of study, as well as anyone who ever enjoyed studying math For that matter, this book would also be good for anyone who finds math at all intriguing, Designed with the general reader and students in mind, this volume provides clear and concise explanations of mathematical concepts. It uses the simplest, jargon-free language possible to clarify such concepts as probability and statistics, discrete mathematics, logic, and analysis. Covering 1001 mathematical topics, the work covers such subjects as geometry, algebra, numbers, applied mathematics, and calculus. This is a fun resource that can make most any student find something interesting in mathematics. It is a concise, general work that can be used for browsing or for looking up specific topics in both high school and public libraries., Often, when one hears a scientific or mathematical reference, it usually requires a concise explanation using regular terminology. Elwes (mathematics researcher, Univ. of Leeds, England) gives us a shortcut to some of mathematics' most significant topics, doing for his subject what Paul Parsons did for science in Science 101: Absolutely Everything That Matters About Science in 1001 Bite-Sized Explanations. As in that book, concise essays about a variety of mathematical fields--numbers, algebra, geometry, logic--are arranged here by broad topics along with more specific subjects. The accessible text is written without troublesome jargon and terminology. Many of the essays contain illustrations of plots, graphs, and figures. The index makes it easy to find an essay if one is not particularly familiar with the hierarchy of mathematics. One can rarely call a mathematics book fun, but that's exactly what Elwes's book is. Appropriate for school, public, and academic collections., Absolutely fascinating.... Dr. Elwes is brilliant at giving the reader the broad perspective, with enough details to fascinate, rather than confuse. Many of the topics cover the foundations of an area of mathematics, and others cover unsolved problems, and everything in between.... I highly recommend this book for any student considering math as their future field of study, as well as anyone who ever enjoyed studying math. For that matter, this book would also be good for anyone who finds math at all intriguing.

I received the package it stunk so bad of cigarette some that I left it in the garage to air out! When I opened it today, there were only 5 packs of max absorbency, the other 5 packages were moderate, which are worthless. When I contacted the seller, he was nasty saying he didn’t have that other “brand” and I couldn’t buy it for the price in the store, and then said and have a nice day!
