Descripción de contraportada
What mathematics can offer students: an enriched and transformed life. --A note from the authors, Edward B. Burger and Michael Starbird
Mathematicians encounter surprising and fascinating ideas such as infinity, chaos, fractals, the fourth dimension, rubber sheet geometry, coincidences, and other intriguing topics on a daily basis. These ideas portray effective strategies in everyday thinking that add value to how people make real-life decisions in areas of love and business to art and politics. We wrote The Heart of Mathematics: An Invitation to Effective Thinking to make truly big and beautiful ideas accessible to all students and to give instructors the chance to offer their students delectable math morsels.
