Mathematical Scandals
Mathematics can be a passionate subject, and this text introduces the human sides and foibles of mathematics and mathematicians. Each scandal is introduced by a vignette which, although fictional, follows factual historical accounts.
The Adventures of Penrose, the Mathematical Cat
Penrose the cat explores and experiences a variety of mathematical concepts, including infinity, the golden rectangle, and impossible figures.
Fractals, Googols, and Other Mathematical Tales
A new treasure trove of stories that make mathematical ideas come to life with an unusual cast of characters. This book explores mathematical concepts and topics such as real numbers, exponents, dimensions, and geometry in both serious and humorous ways. 50 line drawings.
Math Talk
Presents mathematical ideas through poetic dialogues intended to be read by two people.
More Joy of Mathematics
Ideas, puzzles, games from around the world, historic background, graphics, and recent math breakthroughs, from the author of The joy of mathematics and The mathematics calendar. Published by Wide World Publishing, PO Box 476, San Carlos, CA 94070. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Further Adventures of Penrose the Mathematical Cat
Penrose is back, and ready to usher young readers along as he encounters more amazing mathematical ideas in a sequence of adventure tales. At once demystifying and challenging, the book gives readers visuals to consider and things to do as they -- along with Penrose -- discover mathematical "rep-tiles"; meet x, the mathematical actor; find out when one and one do not equal two; help Sorry Snowflake find its symmetry; cross pi's path; learn that mathematical donuts are not for dunking; and more. Plus, Penrose tantalizes, teases, and perplexes with his puzzles and games around every corner. Like Pappas's other acclaimed mathematics books for children, these amusing and informative stories are designed to stimulate the imagination and motivate young minds to think about, grasp, and even marvel over concepts they might otherwise shy away from. A good bet for Pappas fans, Penrose fans, math buffs, teachers, students, and parents.
