Engineering Mathematics

The work of engineers surrounds us: from the phones in our pockets to the layout of our cities. These days, engineers even transport some of us to the moon. But the skills that brought the world clean water and telecommunications also produced polluting technologies that could threaten its future. Engineering explores the scientific, social, and philosophical implications inherent in the challenges faced by engineers throughout history. Here, McCarthy presents a future in which engineering is crucial.

The techniques of Vedic Mathematics have helped millions of students all over the world get rid of their fear of numbers and improve their scores in quantitative subjects.

We can learn many things from models. Scientists use models to test their ideas. Listeners will learn about the importance of making predictions, testing ideas, collecting data, and more.

From imaginary numbers to the perplexing order of operations we all had drilled into us, Eugenia Cheng—mathematician, writer and woman on a mission to rid the world of maths phobia—brings us maths as we've never seen it before, revealing how profound insights can emerge from seemingly unlikely sources. Written with intelligence and passion, Is Maths Real? is a celebration of the true, curious spirit of the discipline.

Our universe has multiple origin stories, from religious creation myths to the Big Bang of scientists. But if we leave those behind and start from nothing – no matter, no cosmos, not even empty space – could we create a universe using only maths? In this new mathematical origin story, mathematician and award-winning novelist Manil Suri creates a natural progression of ideas needed to design our world, starting with numbers and continuing through geometry, algebra, and beyond.

Whether you are an educator, student, researcher, or administrator, it has become even more critical now more than ever to understand what contextualized math curriculum is and how it can be applied inside an online or face-to-face math classroom. What is contextualized mathematics? What are the foundational research underpinnings of contextualized math curriculum? What have we learned about contextualized math curriculum that will improve math education in the future?

Why does mathematics—a creation of the human mind—describe the physical world with such extraordinary precision? Why do equations invented for one purpose turn out, decades or centuries later, to be the perfect language for a completely different realm of nature? In 1960, the Nobel laureate Eugene Wigner called this correspondence a 'gift we neither understand nor deserve.' The question has haunted science ever since. In this book, Boris Kriger proposes an answer that is at once simple and profound: mathematics describes the world because only the mathematically structured survives.

If you’ve spent a fair share of time in math class glancing at the clock, you’re not alone. Glancing at the clouds and wondering how well counting the flower petals on the windowsill can help you run out the clock is a pretty common phenomenon for people who aren’t into numbers. But those connections you make aren’t just in your head. You might just be closer than you think to understanding the universe. The Voice of Math takes a deep dive into understanding numbers through the lens of humanity.

Numeri, figure geometriche e relazioni matematiche sono dovunque attorno a noi, talvolta in forma evidente, più spesso annidati nei meccanismi di funzionamento dell'universo. Ma in che modo - e perché - queste creazioni astratte della mente umana riescono a descrivere il mondo concreto dei fenomeni naturali, da quelli più familiari a quelli che hanno luogo nelle profondità della materia e del cosmo? Un filosofo e uno scienziato esplorano la capillare presenza della matematica nella natura, raccontando alcune delle sue manifestazioni più curiose e affascinanti.

Calculus isn’t just math. It’s how we figured out motion, change, curves, and reality itself. In Calculus 101, JJ takes you on a high-speed ride through the history, drama, and logic behind the most powerful tool humans ever invented. From ancient geometry and Zeno’s paradoxes to Newton’s plague-year breakthrough and the equations running Wall Street, this book breaks it all down in plain English with clarity, humor, and momentum.

Adrián Paenza, galardonado con el Premio Leelavati al mejor divulgador del mundo en matemática, narra los problemas más curiosos sobre matemática recreativa. Uno de los primeros best sellers de autoayuda, fue publicado por primera vez en 1936 y lleva vendidas 15 millones de copias a nivel mundial.

Do you want to become mentally sharper and quicker? Do you want to be able to save time and calculate large numbers on the go while you're shopping or adding up a bill at a restaurant?
