How Numbers Work: Discover the strange and beautiful world of mathematics
The book by new science is one from the series which focuses on making the toughest subject not only easy but also interesting for the students and also people who want to know the answers to several riddles related to mathematics which have been haunting their minds right from their early ages when they first came face to face with the so-called dull and boring subject called mathematics. The book is a booster for those who get confused when they hear about the term number as they fail to comprehend that whether the number is rational, irrational, complex, real, imaginary, whole, natural, even or odd. Then comes the number with decimals in them and something related to pie.
These all increase the stress and we fail to learn even the simple mathematical calculations. The book quite nicely describes the whole world of mathematics and its numbers in a unique way by linking it with the things present in our lives. It solves the problems that our mind fails to solve and helps to develop a concept related to that number as well. Mark Elstob’ narration also helps a lot in the learning process as his tone is not lazy and he keeps the same pace in the narration throughout without any rise or fall in the voice. We can assume that he is not narrating, he is actually teaching mathematics to us. The book also connects well with the new techniques as well and fully describes them in a sort, brief but effective way. The whole series is like a short diploma in connection to numbers and their reality in the physical world.
