Beschreibungen
Do you remember with a shudder the lessons of mathematics at school? This is normal, because Ben Orlin, the author of this book, did not teach here. However, he did not immediately think of explaining to his students that, in fact, mathematics underlies everything in the world: from the lottery to Star Wars, from the recipe for chocolate pies to elections. And that one who has mastered the basics of exact science gets the opportunity to understand the nature and structure of the things and phenomena around us. Orlin acts not only as a teacher, but also as an illustrator: his funny little men and squiggles have conquered thousands of schoolchildren, and they will conquer you too. Fine puns and funny associations, mind games and digital riddles (each of which you will get an elegant and ironic solution) and, of course, the famous signature drawings (which, contrary to the title, are not so stupid) allow Orlin to easily and witty convey the most complex and deep mathematical ideas and convince that even mathematics can be terribly interesting.
