Download or read book Mathematical Essays and Recreations written by Hermann Schubert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mathematical Essays and Recreations The essays and recreations in this volume are by one of the foremost mathematicians and text-book writers of Germany. The monistic construction of arithmetic, the systematic and organic development of all its consequences from a few thoroughly established principles, is quite foreign to the general run of American and English elementary text-books, and the first three essays of Professor Schubert will, therefore, from a logical and esthetic side, be full of suggestions for elementary mathematical teachers and students, as well as for non-mathematical readers. For the actual detailed development of the system of arithmetic here sketched, we may refer the reader to Professor Schubert's volume Arithmetik und Algebra, recently published in the Göschen-Sammlung (Göschen, Leipsic). - an extraordinarily cheap series containing many other unique and valuable textbooks in mathematics and the sciences. The remaining essays on "Magic Squares," "The Fourth Dimension," and "The History of the Squaring of the Circle," will be found to be the most complete generally accessible accounts in English, and to have, one and all, a distinct educational and ethical lesson. In all these essays, which are of a simple and popular character, and designed for the general public, Professor Schubert has incorporated much of his original research.

Book Synopsis Mathematical Recreations and Essays by : W. W. Rouse Ball
Download or read book Mathematical Recreations and Essays written by W. W. Rouse Ball and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mathematical Recreations and Essays The earlier part of this book contains an account of certain Mathematical Recreations: this is followed by some Essays on subjects most of which are directly concerned with historical mathematical problems. I hasten to add that the conclusions are of no practical use, and that most of the results are not new. If therefore the reader proceeds further he is at least forewarned. At the same time I think I may say that many of the questions discussed are interesting, not a few are associated with the names of distinguished mathematicians, while hitherto several of the memoirs quoted have not been easily accessible to English readers. A great deal of new matter has been added since the work was first issued in 1892, but insertions made since 1911, when the book was stereotyped, have had to be placed where room for them could best be found. The book is divided into two parts, but in both parts I have excluded questions which involve advanced mathematics. The First Part now consists of ten chapters, in which are described various problems and amusements of the kind usually termed Mathematical Recreations. Several of the questions mentioned in the first five chapters are of a somewhat trivial character, and had they been treated in any standard English work to which I could have referred the reader, I should have left them out: in the absence of such a work, I thought it better to insert them and trust to the judicious reader to omit them altogether or to skim them as he feels inclined.

Book Synopsis A, Scrap-Book of Elementary Mathematics by : William F. White
Download or read book A, Scrap-Book of Elementary Mathematics written by William F. White and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William F. White was a professor of mathematics at State Normal School in New Paltz, New York and held a PhD from Colgate University. He was also, very clearly, a lover of mathematics. A Scrap-Book of Elementary Mathematics: Notes, Recreations, Essays is White's love letter to math. White makes it clear early in this work that this is not a resource guide or a textbook. Rather, White has created a volume consisting primarily of puzzles, notes, and intriguing principles of mathematics. Essentially, this is the fun side of math. Repeating products, algebraic fallacies, axioms in elementary algebra, and the law of commutation are just four of the intriguing principles discussed. The real strengths of the work are the mathematical games and puzzles presented throughout. Each section of the book is brief, with topics covered in only one or two pages, and the author keeps the book moving at a rapid pace. Bibliographic notes and a detailed index conclude the work. A Scrap-Book of Elementary Mathematics: Notes, Recreations, Essays is exactly the type of text that should be introduced to students of mathematics. It demonstrates real world application of math and all of the quirks and oddities contained within its study. White has put together a lighthearted book that emphasizes enjoyment and discovery over serious analysis and strict repetition. While no replacement for a true textbook, this collection is sure to entertain. Ultimately, A Scrap-Book of Elementary Mathematics: Notes, Recreations, Essays is the rare book that can entertain both kids and adults with math. White's underappreciated work is highly recommended and deserves to sit side by side with modern math textbooks.

This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Mathematical Monthly, Vol. 21 Note BY the editors. - This article illustrates the reference in the editorial of this issue concerning papers of a somewhat more technical character in which, however, we have tried to have the technical terms explained for the benefit of the general reader. Professor Bussey has met this request most admirably. The study of tactical configurations known as triple systems had its origin in two related problems proposed independently by T. P. Kirkman1 and J. Steiner.2 Kirkman's problem is to arrange fifteen school girls in parties of three for seven consecutive days' walk so that every two of the girls walk together once and only once during the seven days. There is a good account of the history of the problem with several methods of solution in Ball's Mathematical Recreations and Essays, 5th edition, Chapter 9. An arrangement of a number of elements in sets of three so that every set of two is contained in one and only one set of three is called a triple system. The sets of three are called triples or triads. The problem of the fifteen school girls involves a triple system of 15 elements and 35 triads. The simplest triple system is the following well-known one of 7 elements and 7 triads. The digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 are the elements and the columns are the triads.
