Memoirs of a Maverick Mathematician
Author: Zoltan Paul Dienes
Publisher: Upfront Publishing
ISBN: 9781844261925
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 580
Book Description
Dr Zoltan Dienes is a world-famous theorist and tireless practitioner of the 'new mathematics' - an approach to mathematics learning which uses games, songs and dance to make it more appealing to children. Holder of numerous honorary degrees, Dr Dienes has had a long and fruitful career, breaking new ground and gaining many followers with his revolutionary ideas of learning often complex mathematical concepts in such fun ways that children are often unaware that they are learning anything.This is an honest account of an academic radical, covering his sometimes unconventional childhood in Hungary, France, Germany and Britain, his peripatetic academic career, his successes and failures and his personal affairs. Occasionally sad or moving, frequently amusing and always fascinating, this autobiography shares some of the intelligence, spirit and humanity that have made Dr Dienes such a landmark figure in mathematics education. A 'must-read' for anyone with a professional interest in the field, this is also an absorbing and frank book for anyone interested in the life of a man of ideas who was not afraid to take on the might of the traditionalist educational establishment.

Probability ; Combinatorics ; Teaching and Learning in Mathematics
Author: George Pólya
Publisher: MIT Press (MA)
ISBN:
Category : Combinatorial analysis
Languages : en
Pages : 664
Book Description
This volume completes the publication of the collected papers of George Polya, one of the most influential mathematicians and teachers of our time. Volumes I ("Singularities of Analytic Functions") and II ("Location of Zeros") were published in 1974.Volume IV presents 20 papers on probability, 17 on combinatorics, and 18 on the teaching and learning of mathematics. Polya has made a number of fundamental contributions to the first two fields, including perhaps the first use of the term "central limit theorem," but his major influence on mathematics has clearly been his approach to pedagogy. Many of the papers throughout these volumes have a strongly pedagogical flavor, but the papers in the third section of this volume focus squarely on the real business of how to do mathematics--how to formulate a problem and then create a solution.This volume is the twenty-third in the series Mathematicians of Our Time, edited by Gian-Carlo Rota.
