Math-ish : finding creativity, diversity, and meaning in mathematics / by Boaler, Jo,1964-author.(CARDINAL)641508;
"[A] guide to finding joy and understanding by adopting a diverse approach to learning math ... Stanford researcher, mathematics education professor, and the leading expert on math learning Dr. Jo Boaler argues that our differences are the key to unlocking our greatest mathematics potential ... Boaler shares ... neuroscientific research on how embracing the concept of 'math-ish'--a theory of mathematics as it exists in the real world--changes the way we think about mathematics, data, and ourselves. [She argues that] when we can see the value of diversity among people and multi-faceted approaches to learning math, we are free to truly flourish"--Provided by publisherIncludes bibliographical references (pages 277-296).

Elements of mathematics: from Euclid to Godel / by Stillwell, John.(CARDINAL)512095;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 395-403) and index.Elements of Mathematics takes readers on a fascinating tour that begins in elementary mathematics but, as John Stillwell shows, this subject is not as elementary or straightforward as one might think. Not all topics that are part of today's elementary mathematics were always considered as such, and great mathematical advances and discoveries had to occur in order for certain subjects to become "elementary." Stillwell examines elementary mathematics from a distinctive twenty-first-century viewpoint and describes not only the beauty and scope of the discipline, but also its limits. From Gaussian integers to propositional logic, Stillwell delves into arithmetic, computation, algebra, geometry, calculus, combinatorics, probability, and logic. He discusses how each area ties into more advanced topics to build mathematics as a whole. Through a rich collection of basic principles, vivid examples, and interesting problems, Stillwell demonstrates that elementary mathematics becomes advanced with the intervention of infinity. Infinity has been observed throughout mathematical history, but the recent development of "reverse mathematics" confirms that infinity is essential for proving well-known theorems, and helps to determine the nature, contours, and borders of elementary mathematics. Elements of Mathematics gives readers, from high school students to professional mathematicians, the highlights of elementary mathematics and glimpses of the parts of math beyond its boundaries.
