In the words of the author, “I have written Mathematics All Around based on the belief that there are three things a student must focus on in order to learn and remember mathematics―understanding, understanding, understanding. Instead of simply presenting the students with an equation or method and asking them to repeat the procedure, I explain the thinking behind the subject so they have a better grasp of the material and an easier time with the work. With this approach, one can discuss topics usually considered “too difficult” for liberal arts students. As a result, students end up with an understanding of and positive attitude toward many different and often challenging mathematical topics.”
