Overview
Do your eyes glaze over when someone starts talking about math? Do you start to feel inadequate? Do you need a calculator to figure out the most basic math problems, including the fifteen percent tip at the end of dinner? You're not alone. The world is full of people who have a fear of math, but Mathamazement will show you how simple and fascinating math can be. Math teacher Ronn Yablun uses his proven and effective techniques to help typical "mathaphobe" sufferers overcome their fear and realize what math can do when fear is replaced by knowledge.Each chapter has a mix of abstract problems and word problems (in case you still think you don't need math in the real world) with answers in the back of the book. At the end of each chapter are "cheat sheets" for remembering simple shortcuts and handy formulas. You'll even learn how to use some of those "mystery keys" on your calculator.
So if you're just a little rusty or need a complete math makeover, this book will give you the direction and information you need.
