ReviewsOne Hundred Commonly Asked Questions in Math Class makes a serious attempt to demystify long-standing mathematical concepts, especially for adolescents and teenagers. While many concepts will still require further explanation, it comes as a relief to know that some of the mysteries will be resolved., Finally, there is a book that meets a genuine educational need: providing mathematics teachers with comprehensive responses to student questions. Unfortunately, teachers are sometimes unprepared for the myriad of student questions - thereby leaving them frustrated. Here is the solution!, "Everything you always wanted to know about mathematics but were afraid to ask. This is the "tell all" math book you've been waiting for!", Everything you always wanted to know about mathematics but were afraid to ask.
