How the Other Half Thinks: Adventures in Mathematical Reasoning by Sherman K. Stein
English | 1 July 2001 | ISBN: 007137339X | 188 Pages | PDF | 3 MB

Maths enthusiasts aren't necessarily the number-crunching geeks we tend to assume. In fact, they know that maths is about much more than numbers; it is a profoundly philosophical endeavour, as well as a stimulating mental exercise. In "How the Other Half Thinks", Sherman Stein emphasizes the creative elements of mathematics by exploring some significant mathematical discoveries through simple, intuitive manipulations.
