The Mathematics Bible by Colin Beveridge (Maths coach) Pdf
"Mathematics isn't just knowing your times table and logarithmic laws. It's full of stores, characters, legends and parables. The Mathematics Bible brings the subject to life in an accessible and engaging way. It unlocks the fascinating history of mathematics and documents the subject's development from the ancient Babylonian calculations to the proof of the modularity theorem. It doesn't just help you understand the core theories of mathematics, but also tells the remarkable stories - such as the suspicious death of Évariste Galois and Newton's conflict with Leibniz. Accessible, informative and fully-illustrated, this is a book that shows perfectly just how varied and fascinating mathematics is a s a subject."--back cover
