Autor Colin W. Clark
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2012
Math Overboard! is a complete review of school math, from kindergartento Grade 12. It is ideally suited for self-study by students (especially thoseplanning to enter college or university), parents, educators, and other interested adults. Every standard topic is completely covered, with easy-to-understand explanations. Math Overboard! places equal emphasis on computational skills and overall comprehension of math. Frequent Problems support learning.

Math Overboard! is designed to remove any gaps in your mathematical training (or remembrance) -- gaps that can be devastating in terms of allowingyou to succeed in more advanced, college-level courses. If, for example, youfeel shaky in Algebra, or Trigonometry, studying the chapters on those topicswill rapidly bring you "up to speed." Using the detailed Index can lead you todiscussions of words or topics that you may have forgotten.

Finally, Math Overboard! describes many real-world uses of elementarymathematics, in Science, Technology, Finance and Economics, and other fields.Reading about these applications will help to convince you of the usefulness ofone of mankind's greatest achievements, the world of mathematics.



Colin W. Clark is Professor Emeritus of Mathematics at the University of BritishColumbia. Math Overboard! is the book that Dr. Clark wishes his students had access to, as they struggled to grasp Calculus based on a weak understanding (often misunderstanding) of school-level math. Clark's previous books includeMathematical Bioeconomics - The Mathematics of Conservation, and Dynamic State-Variable Models in Ecology. Colin and his wife Janet live in Richmond, a suburb of Vancouver, Canada.
