Gr 7 Up-The author takes readers on a tour of the astounding realm of mathematics and its connections to every area of life. Everyday examples such as card tricks or musical harmony make connections with the reader's background knowledge, while each chapter explores the ways in which math is intertwined throughout the cosmos. Whether a reader is interested in chemistry, origami, lightning, or the circulatory system, this book engagingly traces how various fields of mathematics play a part in understanding each one. Terms like fractals, golden ratio, and Fibonacci sequence are easily comprehensible with the explanations and diagrams provided. The text is informative yet entertaining enough to win over those who are not math lovers. There are quotes from famous mathematicians and even math jokes. The book can be enjoyed from cover to cover, or each chapter can be read as a stand-alone essay. There are also suggestions for further reading. VERDICT Perfect for library collections; or for use in the classroom as a discussion starter.
