  • Exploring Classical Greek Construction Problems with Interactive Geometry Software

    de Ad Meskens, Paul Tytgat ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In this book the classical Greek construction problems are explored in a didactical, enquiry based fashion using Interactive Geometry Software (IGS). The book traces the history of these problems, stating them in modern terminology. By focusing on constructions and the use of IGS the reader is confronted with the same problems that ancient mathematicians once faced. The reader can step into the ... Leer más

  • A Mathematician's Lament

    How School Cheats Us Out of Our Most Fascinating and Imaginative Art Form

    de Paul Lockhart ...
    “One of the best critiques of current K-12 mathematics education I have ever seen, written by a first-class research mathematician who elected to devote his teaching career to K-12 education.” —Keith Devlin, NPR’s “Math Guy”A brilliant research mathematician reveals math to be a creative art form on par with painting, poetry, and sculpture, and rejects the standard anxiety-producing teaching ...

  • A Certain Ambiguity

    A Mathematical Novel (New in Paper)

    de Gaurav Suri, Hartosh Singh Bal ...
    While taking a class on infinity at Stanford in the late 1980s, Ravi Kapoor discovers that he is confronting the same mathematical and philosophical dilemmas that his mathematician grandfather had faced many decades earlier--and that had landed him in jail. Charged under an obscure blasphemy law in a small New Jersey town in 1919, Vijay Sahni is challenged by a skeptical judge to defend his belief ... Leer más

  • Heavenly Mathematics

    The Forgotten Art of Spherical Trigonometry

    de Glen Van Brummelen ...
    Spherical trigonometry was at the heart of astronomy and ocean-going navigation for two millennia. The discipline was a mainstay of mathematics education for centuries, and it was a standard subject in high schools until the 1950s. Today, however, it is rarely taught. Heavenly Mathematics traces the rich history of this forgotten art, revealing how the cultures of classical Greece, medieval Islam, ... Leer más

  • Trigonometry

    de I.M. Gelfand, Mark Saul ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In a sense, trigonometry sits at the center of high school mathematics. It originates in the study of geometry when we investigate the ratios of sides in similar right triangles, or when we look at the relationship between a chord of a circle and its arc. It leads to a much deeper study of periodic functions, and of the so-called transcendental functions, which cannot be described using finite ... Leer más

  • Turning Points in the History of Mathematics

    de Israel Kleiner, Hardy Grant ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book explores some of the major turning points in the history of mathematics, ranging from ancient Greece to the present, demonstrating the drama that has often been a part of its evolution. Studying these breakthroughs, transitions, and revolutions, their stumbling-blocks and their triumphs, can help illuminate the importance of the history of mathematics for its teaching, learning, and ...

  • Euclidean Geometry and its Subgeometries

    de Edward John Specht, Harold Trainer Jones, Keith G. Calkins, Donald H. Rhoads ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    In this monograph, the authors present a modern development of Euclidean geometry from independent axioms, using up-to-date language and providing detailed proofs. The axioms for incidence, betweenness, and plane separation are close to those of Hilbert. This is the only axiomatic treatment of Euclidean geometry that uses axioms not involving metric notions and that explores congruence and ... Leer más

  • On the Teaching of Linear Algebra

    Edición de J.-L. Dorier ...
    Series series Education (R0)
    To a large extent, it lies, no doubt, in what is presented in this work under the title of ‘meta lever‘, a method which it is certainly interesting to develop and further refine. There exists in mathematics courses a strange prudery which forbids one to ask questions such as, ‹‹ Why are we doing this? », ‹‹ At what is the objective aimed? », whereas it is usually easy to reply to such questions, ...

  • Euclid's Heritage. Is Space Three-Dimensional?

    Traducido por David Zook ...
    de P. Janich ...
    Series series Philosophy and Religion (R0)
    We live in a space, we get about in it. We also quantify it, we think of it as having dimensions. Ever since Euclid's ancient geometry, we have thought of bodies occupying parts of this space (including our own bodies), the space of our practical orientations (our 'moving abouts'), as having three dimensions. Bodies have volume specified by measures of length, breadth and height. But how do we ... Leer más

  • A Differential Approach to Geometry

    Geometric Trilogy III

    de Francis Borceux ...
    This book presents the classical theory of curves in the plane and three-dimensional space, and the classical theory of surfaces in three-dimensional space. It pays particular attention to the historical development of the theory and the preliminary approaches that support contemporary geometrical notions. It includes a chapter that lists a very wide scope of plane curves and their properties. The ... Leer más
