Lateral thinking has long been used informally by good mathematics teachers and lecturers to spice up their material and interest their students in the more artistic aspects of mathematical problem solving. In this book, the author attempts to carry out this process formally, with reference to specific, non-technical problems that are easily understood and explained at an intermediate level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is appropriate for interested high school students, undergraduates and postgraduates, looking for relief from technical material and also looking for insight into the methodology of mathematics; for teachers and lecturers looking for a novel approach to course material; and anyone interested in both mathematics and lateral thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProblems and Solutions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber Theory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimes and Divisibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometry. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrigonometry. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProbability. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombinatorics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDissections. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatchsticks and Coins. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLogic. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaxima and Minima. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalculus and Analysis. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Mixed Bag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019011293527,"sku":"9781032370927","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032370927.jpg?v=1750779020","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/lateral-solutions-to-mathematical-problems-9781032370927","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
