Book SynopsisTrade Review"Fascinating. . . . Part philosophy, part maths, part activity book; Games for Your Mind is an ingenious thing."---Amy Barrett, BBC Science Focus"Excellent."---Elizabeth Palmer, Christian Century"It’s a serious and at times technical book, specifically about logic puzzles, though beneath its concern with matters such as obversion and epistemic obligations it has an unexpected jauntiness."---Henry Hitchings, Times Literary Supplement"Jason Rosenhouse’s Games for Your Mind is an engaging popular mathematics book written to enlighten the reader on the mathematics and logic behind popular puzzles. . . .overall, the reviewer would recommend this book to all people who want a puzzling challenge. Although the puzzles towards the end of the book feel impossible, the thrill of that ‘ah!’ moment when you work through Rosenhouse’s solution is surely a high for any mathematician out there."---Holly A.

Book SynopsisCan you really keep your eye on the ball? How is massive data collection changing sports?Sports science courses are growing in popularity. The author's course at Roanoke College is a mix of physics, physiology, mathematics, and statistics. Many students of both genders find it exciting to think about sports. Sports problems are easy to create and state, even for students who do not live sports 24/7. Sports are part of their culture and knowledge base, and the opportunity to be an expert on some area of sports is invigorating. This should be the primary reason for the growth of mathematics of sports courses: the topic provides intrinsic motivation for students to do their best work.From the Author:The topics covered in Sports Science and Sports Analytics courses vary widely. To use a golfing analogy, writing a book like this is like hitting a drive at a driving range; there are many Trade ReviewThe book is written at a level that is accessible to a large audience. It contains a small number of applications that make use of calculus; otherwise, only a high school level mathematics background is required. Furthermore, one can easily skip over those sections that require calculus and still have plenty of accessible material to read.Sports Math is well written and easy to read. The book should appeal to anyone interested in the quantitative aspects of athletics. Each chapter of the books ends with a fairly large number of exercises and also pointers to further reading. Thus, the book could be used not only as a textbook for a course but also as a nice resource for student projects.~Mathematical Reviews, 2017Minton presents a textbook based on the current status of a sport science course that has evolved since he began teaching it in 1988. He offers a sample of topics that he knows something about and finds interesting, and hopes that instructors and students will find the book useful. His topics are projectile motion, rotational motion, sports illusions, collisions, ratings systems, voting systems, saber- and other metrics, randomness in sports, sports strategies, and big data and beyond.~ProtoView, 2017 This work discusses how mathematics is used to analyze popular American sports like football, baseball, and basketball. Minton (mathematics, Roanoke College) has based this book on several of his undergraduate courses. The book covers two major aspects: the physics involved in sports (e.g., the motion of a ball) and the statistics used to make probabilistic ratings of performance and success. The beginning chapters consider topics from mechanics, such as “Projectile Motion,” “Rotational Motion,” and “Collisions.” The rest of the text is devoted to statistics used in sports ratings and analysis, with many examples from specific games played in the big leagues or by major colleges. The material covered is selective and quirky; the level of analytical mathematics and statistics ranges from simple to advanced, including calculus, matrixes, and game theory. Each chapter has solved examples and end-of-chapter questions, problems, and suggestions for projects. There are pictures and graphs interspersed throughout the text.
