Counting in Circlemaths (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

For children and adults alike, the foundations of counting are explored in detail. The history of number as it emerges from the human mind. Number is not seen as "out there" but is related to our own thinking. Bases are explored along with ways to do multi-base arithmetic, aimed at introducing fundamental concepts to assist with rapid mental calculation, developed further in other books. Treat this book like a game, there are no tables nor addition results to memorize, everything is very simple in that respect. The strange rules and approaches used to obtain answers in these strange bases can nevertheless be applied to our own base to produce excellent computational ability, and the deep understanding of the counting process will produce a solid foundation for understanding mathematics.

Autorenporträt

Robert has an MSc in maths and has worked closely with his father Dr SW Taylor who produced a new system of approaching arithmetic which brings in a philosophical dimension not normally encountered in that "dry" subject. The result is a system of arithmetic which conveys a high ability to calculate, something missing in today's curriculum, and a deep understanding not only of mathematics but also of philosophy.
