Krátky popis
In MATH WITH BAD DRAWINGS, Ben Orlin answers math's three big
questions: Why do I need to learn this? When am I ever going to use
it? Why is it so hard? The answers come in various forms-cartoons,
drawings, jokes, and the stories and insights of an empathetic
teacher who believes that math should belong to everyone. Eschewing
the tired old curriculum that begins in the wading pool of addition
and subtraction and progresses to the shark infested waters of
calculus (AKA the Great Weed Out Course), Orlin instead shows us
how to think like a mathematician by teaching us a new game of
Tic-Tac-Toe, how to understand an economic crisis by rolling a pair
of dice, and the mathematical reason why you should never buy a
second lottery ticket. Every example in the book is illustrated
with his trademark ",bad drawings,", which convey both his humor
and his message with perfect pitch and clarity.Organized by
unconventional but compelling topics such as ",Statistics: The Fine
Art of Honest Lying,", ",Design: The Geometry of Stuff That
Works,", and ",Probability: The Mathematics of Maybe,", MATH WITH
BAD DRAWINGS is a perfect read for fans of illustrated popular
science.
