PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Paul J. Nahin is professor emeritus of electrical engineering at the University of New Hampshire. He is the author of many best-selling popular math books, including Digital Dice, Chases and Escapes, Dr. Euler's Fabulous Formula, When Least Is Best, Duelling Idiots and Other Probability Puzzlers, and An Imaginary Tale (all Princeton).
Nahin's writing style, as in previous books, is clear, conversational, humorous and chatty... Physics and mathematics students who want to see interesting applications of the ideas they have studied should certainly find it attractive, as should faculty members in either of these departments who are looking for interesting ideas for lectures or enrichment material. --Mark Hunacek, MAA Reviews Fun, accessible physics/math problems along with some humor. --Antonio Cangiano, Math-Blog [Nahin] knows how to catch the attention of his reader. You will not regret buying any of his books, and I am sure after reading it, you will pick up this one to check again on one of his models and his solution methods. --Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society This is a superb book for individuals interested in exploring how basic physics principles can be used to explain natural phenomena... This is a great book that demonstrates clever ways to solve simple physics problems. --Choice
