Summary:
"You may not realize it, but math controls just about everything in our world. From cracking codes to winning game shows, from predicting comets to solving crimes. This unique book reveals where our most important math ideas came from (you'll be surprised!), explains really simply how they work (good for homework, zzzz), and identifies the extraordinary things you can do with them, from measuring a pyramid to becoming a trillionaire. It might change your mind about math forever!"--Back cover.
