The author's mission is to make math exciting and seductive for those who thought they hated or just couldn't do it. Demonstrates the engaging, playful nature of Math. The text includes his persuasively written analysis of how math should NOT be taught along with some thought provoking methods for how to make the subject more enriching and fun, including sample problems and a fascinating philosophical history for the math layman. Lockhart is considered a brilliant mathematician and somewhat of a star in the field. This is a rare opportunity to get in on the ground floor with a new, potentially “hot” author. Author's style is lively and entertaining.
