Math Girls 3
Author: Hiroshi Yuki
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781939326287
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
In the early twentieth century, a massive undertaking to rid mathematics of all paradoxes and inconsistencies was underway. Known as Hilbert's program, it sought to provide an unshakable foundation for all of mathematics. Things seemed to be proceeding well until young Kurt Godel stunned the world by proving that Hilbert's goals were unobtainable, that contradiction was part of the warp and weave of any mathematical system. Yet what at the time seemed to be a fatal blow to mathematical consistency now forms the basis of modern logic. Godel's incompleteness theorems are often misunderstood to be a statement of the limits of mathematical reasoning, but in truth they strengthen mathematics, building it up to be more powerful than what had come before. In this third book in the Math Girls series, join Miruka and friends as they tackle the basics of modern logic, learning such topics as the Peano axioms, set theory, and diagonalization, leading up to an in-depth exploration of Godel's famous theorems. Along the way, visit other interesting and important topics such as trigonometry and the epsilon-delta definition of limits, and of course take on challenges from the enigmatic Mr. Muraki. Math Girls 3: Godel's Incompleteness Theorems has something for anyone interested in mathematics, from advanced high school students to college math majors and educators."

Everyone Can Learn Math
Author: Alice Aspinall
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525533746
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 29
Book Description
How do you approach a math problem that challenges you? Do you keep trying until you reach a solution? Or are you like Amy, who gets frustrated easily and gives up? Amy is usually a happy and enthusiastic student in grade five who loves to dance, but she is struggling with a tough math assignment. She doesn’t think she is good at math because her classmates always get the answers faster than she does and sometimes she uses her fingers to help her count. Even though her mom tries to help her, Amy is convinced she just cannot do math. She decides not to do the assignment at all since she thinks she wouldn’t do well anyway. As Amy goes about her day, her experiences at ballet class, the playground, and gym class have her thinking back to how she gave up on her math assignment. She starts to notice that hard-work, practice, and dedication lead to success, thanks to her friends and teachers. She soon comes to understand that learning math is no different than learning any other skill in life. With some extra encouragement from her math teacher, a little help from her mom, and a new attitude, Amy realizes that she can do math!

Book Description
Your book is "fabulous". I spent two hours last night working problems from it. I'm planning to use some in what I do with teachers, with citation of course. I love it. I love the clever problems you came up with and the clever solutions of the MATHCOUNTS problems you used. Dr. Harold Reiter, former Chairman of Mathcounts Question Written Committee, Math Professor, UNC at Charlotte Being responsible for the publications we put out at MATHCOUNTS, I understand the incredible amount of work this required. Congratulations on such a great accomplishment. ---Kristen Chandler Mathcounts, Deputy Director & Program Director I just finished going through with it. As for the book, I'm pretty impressed. It really seems you put a lot of time and effort into it, and I liked it. - Calvin Deng 2010 USA IMO Team Member, Silver Medalist I bought this book together with "Twenty More Problem Solving Skills" for my 6th grade daughter, who loves math, and is preparing for AMC and MathCounts competition. She is very excited with these two books, and learns a lot from these two books in her math competitionpreparation. We recommend this book as a must have math competition collection. - -A parent
