Title: Everyday Math for Everyday Life: A Handbook for When It Just Doesn't Add Up by Mark Ryan ISBN: 0446677264 Publisher: Warner Books Pub. Date: 01 December, 2002 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $14.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 5
Rating: 5
Summary: Extremely worthwhile
Comment: As someone who did research, fact-checking, and preliminary runthoughs for Mark during the early stages of this book's making, I know firsthand how much work went into it. He went well out of his way to make this book simultaneously entertaining and enlightening. The book is obviously geared toward those who aren't math-oriented, but it would be a welcome addition to a math-lover's collection as well. Someone who has enjoyed John Allen Paulos's books "Immumeracy" and "A Mathematician Reads the Newspaper," would definately appreciate this too.
Rating: 5
Summary: A must for anyone whose math skills have begun to rust
Comment: This book is great. I was shopping around for a basic math book for my wife, who recently got a management position, and stumbled across Everyday Math for Everyday Life. Most of the other book choices were just pages and pages of numbers, but Mr. Ryan does a wonderful job of putting the numbers into readable and understandable words. It is also well organized and clearly indexed. Now, the book is not only on my wife's desk, but I bought another copy for our reference shelf at home. I found the practical examples and explanations so well put that I expect to use Everyday Math as a resource to help my two school age children with their homework.
