Whether you have a degree in astrophysics or havent touched a math problem since high school, this book sends you on a fascinating journey through the logic of life where Newtons laws explain bar fights, exploding rabbit populations, and why showers always run either too hot or too cold. Why Do Buses Come in Threes? is a delightfully entertaining ride that reveals the relevance of math in absolutely everything we do.
This book is appropriate for the average high school student or for gifted junior high students. The problems in this book are straightforward math problems with no missing information.
From the reviews: … Many parts of the book can be read by anyone with a basic abstract algebra course… it was one of the author’s intentions to equip students who are interested in computational problems with the necessary algebraic background in pure mathematics and to encourage them to do further research in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. But researchers will also benefit from this exposition. They will find an up-to-date description of the related research … The reviewer recommends the book to anybody who is interested in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry and its computational aspects. Math. Reviews 2002 … a sophisticated notebook, with plenty of suggestions, examples and cross references … It is a welcome new and deep exploration into commutative algebra and its relations with algebraic geometry. It is full of results, from simple tricks to more elaborate constructions, all having in common a computational and constructive nature… Jahresberichte der DMV 1999

This book addresses many topics that are important to students who want to succeed in mathematics. A major part of this book has been devoted to taking a proactive approach and eliminating the anxiety. Many publishers support their textbooks with numerous tutorials, and many tutorial services are available. However, not every tutorial is appropriate for every student, so a detailed analysis of the resources available has been added. Getting the right help is important. The wrong help may waste valuable time. Learning mathematics requires different study skills than most other subjects, in particular: breaking difficult problems into parts, understanding application problems, and using the technology available. Transitioning to college and what changes are needed to succeed in college mathematics classes is also a feature of this book. Whatever difficulties a student is having in mathematics, valuable help is here, within the pages of this book!
