I am always on the lookout for tips and guidance on how to make a subject interesting while teaching it.
This compact book written by Liz Strachan, a school teacher whose experience spans 36 long years, is about how to make mathematics enjoyable to the students.
This book is a compilation of about 66 short 5-minute reads consisting of - anecdotes about famous mathematicians, her experiences from her classroom, facts and stories behind some mathematical principles, trivia, puzzles, tricks and short-cut calculations.
The author is able to demonstrate that mathematics can be fun and is not just a mysterious subject meant for those with high IQs.
No wonder she was one of the four writers shortlisted for Educational Writers Award 2010.
A right book to be presented to those who hate or are scared of mathematics !
