This fun volume makes math intriguing by teaching the principles of math while putting them into a real-world context. Readers learn about the first evidence of numerals found in carvings in eastern Afghanistan, that they can apply trigonometry to measuring the Eiffel Tower, and that the Fibonacci series applies to the dimensions of petals on a flower. By showing how math can be applied in everyday life, this book stands above other books on the subject.
