This is a popular book about culture, identity and mathematics. It will appeal to a wide readership, including, and in particular, those who are hesitant about the place of mathematics within a traditional perspective of what constitutes culture.
'A delightful and fascinating read about the role of maths in Wales, and the role of Wales in maths. Anyone with an interest in Welsh culture, maths history or education will love this book.' - Guardian blogger Alex Bellos, author of Alex's Adventures in Numberland and Alex Through the Looking-Glass; 'Count us in presents a highly accessible sequence of insights into the ways in which individuals engage with number, along with some fascinating perspectives on the connections between mathematics and culture.' - Gareth Pierce, Chief Executive, Welsh Joint Education Committee; 'This engaging book informs with a light touch, and shows not only how to set subjects like mathematics in their cultural context but also why it is important to do so. It is a fascinating read for anyone who has ever struggled with sums, because it actually makes maths fun!' - Dr Elin Jones, historian and broadcaster
