Mathematical Conundrums

Mathematical Conundrums

Want to sharpen your mathematical wits? If so then Mathematical Conundrums is for you. Daily Telegraph enigmatologist Barry R. Clarke presents over 120 fiendish problems that will test both your ingenuity and persistence. Between these covers are puzzles in geometry arithmetic and algebra (there is even a section for computer programmers). And for the smartest readers who wish to stretch their mind to its limits a selection of engaging logic and visual lateral puzzles is included. Although no puzzle requires a greater knowledge of mathematics than the high school curriculum this collection will take you to the edge. But are you equal to the challenge? Features High-school level of mathematics is the only pre-requisite Variety of algebraic route-drawing and geometrical conundrums Hints section for the lateral puzzles Warm-up excercises to sharpen the wits Full solutions to every problem Barry R. Clarke has published over 1 500 puzzles in The Daily Telegraph and has contributed enigmas to New Scientist The Sunday Times Reader’s Digest The Sunday Telegraph and Prospect magazine. His book Challenging Logic Puzzles Mensa has sold over 100 000 copies. As well as a PhD in Shakespeare Studies Barry has a master’s degree and academic publications in quantum physics. He is now working on a revised theory of the hydrogen atom. Other skills include mathematics tutor filmmaker comedy-sketch writer cartoonist computer programmer and blues guitarist!

Six Simple Twists The Pleat Pattern Approach to Origami Tessellation Design

Six Simple Twists The Pleat Pattern Approach to Origami Tessellation Design

This new edition of Six Simple Twists: The Pleat Pattern Approach to Origami Tessellation Design introduces an innovative pleat pattern technique for origami designs that is easily accessible to anyone who enjoys the geometry of paper. The book begins with six basic forms meant to ease the reader into the style and then systematically scaffolds the instructions to build a strong understanding of the techniques leading to instructions on a limitless number of patterns. It then describes a process of designing additional building blocks. At the end what emerges is a fascinating artform that will enrich folders for many years. Unlike standard project-based origami books Six Simple Twists focuses on how to design rather than construct. In this thoroughly updated second edition the book explores new techniques and example tessellations with full-page images and mathematical analysis of the patterns. A reader will through practice gain the ability to create still more complex and fascinating designs. Key Features Introduces the reader to origami tessellations and demonstrates their place in the origami community New layout and instructional approach restructure the book from the ground up Addresses common tessellation questions such as what types of paper are best to use and how this artform rose in popularity Teaches the reader how to grid a sheet of paper and the importance of the pre-creases Gives the reader the ability to create and understand tessellations through scaffolded instruction Includes exercises to test understanding Introduces a new notation system for precisely describing pleat intersections Analyzes pleat intersections mathematically using geometrically-focused models including information about Brocard points | Six Simple Twists The Pleat Pattern Approach to Origami Tessellation Design
