Mathematical card effects offer both beginning and experienced magicians an opportunity to entertain with a minimum of props. Featuring mostly original creations, Mathematical Card Magic: Fifty-Two New Effects presents an entertaining look at new mathematically based card tricks. Each chapter contains four card effects, generally starting with simple applications of a particular mathematical principle and ending with more complex ones. Practice a handful of the introductory effects and, in no time, you’ll establish your reputation as a "mathemagician." Delve a little deeper into each chapter and the mathematics gets more interesting. The author explains the mathematics as needed in an easy-to-follow way. He also provides additional details, background, and suggestions for further explorations. Suitable for recreational math buffs and amateur card lovers or as a text in a first-year seminar, this color book offers a diverse collection of new mathemagic principles and effects.

Learning math can be a difficult task for any child, and for many adults. But learning to work with numbers need not be a dreaded experience; in fact, it can even be fun! Scott Flansburg, also known as "the Human Calculator," can help kids learn how to add, subtract, multiply and divide without the anxiety and frustration which often accompanies learning these skills. Using techniques that make numbers easy to work with and by demonstrating how math is essential to everyday life (contrary to the lament of a great percentage of students), Math Magic for Your Kids can help maximize your child's potential to understand math and enjoy it in the process. Flansburg has helped millions of "math phobic" adults with his popular lectures and best-selling book, Math Magic. Now he is reaching out to help America's "math phobic" kids. Math Magic for Your Kids makes it easy, even for those adults who suffer from math anxiety, to help the next generation get a leg up on essential math skills.The book is specifically designed to be combined with various mathematics curricula approved by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Aimed at children aged 5 through 8, it can also benefit younger children who demonstrate a readiness for advanced number concepts and for older children who need reinforcement of basic math skills. For kids who struggle with simple math skills, Flansburg provides activities to "build a child's math sense" and help reinforce math concepts. Math Magic for Your Kids also contains information and anecdotes that relate math concepts to everyday situations, explains principles that facilitate learning in general, and provides shortcut methods as well as challenging puzzles and riddles to keep kids interested and involved. Games and exercises are designed to be executed independently or with parents' help.

Fool your friends; baffle your buddies; and perplex your parents with dozens of amazing tricks. Each of these fascinating feats appears to be the work of magical forces, but their true secret lies in mathematical manipulations. Correctly guess the age of any volunteer. Startle a stranger with knowledge about his or her life. Read minds, make accurate predictions, perform lightning-quick calculations, and demonstrate seemingly mystical powers of memory. Perform extraordinary effects with cards, dice, pencil and paper (and occasionally a calculator). In all of these tricks, the mathematical principle is well-concealed, and in many of them the use of numbers isn't even suspected. For each trick, an explanation of why it works is included in order to help you better understand the principle behind it, as well as to enable you to make your own variations on the trick or to develop other tricks on your own. Suggestions are given for what to say when introducing a trick so as to heighten suspense, increase sur prise, and keep your audience as confounded as possible. No sleight of hand is used, but with your brain power as your "magic wand," you'll have fun entertaining, amazing, and confusing people for hours. 96 pages, 51 b/w illus., 5 3/8 x 8 1/4.

"Magical Mathematics reveals the secrets of amazing, fun-to-perform card tricks--and the profound mathematical ideas behind them--that will astound even the most accomplished magician. Persi Diaconis and Ron Graham provide easy, step-by-step instructions for each trick, explaining how to set up the effect and offering tips on what to say and do while performing it. Each card trick introduces a new mathematical idea, and varying the tricks in turn takes readers to the very threshold of today's mathematical knowledge. For example, the Gilbreath principle--a fantastic effect where the cards remain in control despite being shuffled--is found to share an intimate connection with the Mandelbrot set. Other card tricks link to the mathematical secrets of combinatorics, graph theory, number theory, topology, the Riemann hypothesis, and even Fermat's last theorem. Diaconis and Graham are mathematicians as well as skilled performers with decades of professional experience between them. In this book they share a wealth of conjuring lore, including some closely guarded secrets of legendary magicians. Magical Mathematics covers the mathematics of juggling and shows how the I Ching connects to the history of probability and magic tricks both old and new. It tells the stories--and reveals the best tricks--of the eccentric and brilliant inventors of mathematical magic. Magical Mathematics exposes old gambling secrets through the mathematics of shuffling cards, explains the classic street-gambling scam of three-card monte, traces the history of mathematical magic back to the thirteenth century and the oldest mathematical trick--and much more"-

Ever find yourself struggling to check a bill or tax on a payslip? The Trachtenberg Speed System provides a course in refining basic mathematics skills to tackle large sums before simplifying to increase concentration and ability in day-to-day arithmetic. The Trachtenberg system has been described as the 'shorthand of mathematics' and only requires the ability to count from one to eleven. Using a series of simplified keys, it allows anyone to master numbers and calculations giving greater speed, ease in handling numbers and increasing accuracy. Jakow Trachtenberg believed that everyone is born with phenomenal abilities to calculate. He devised a set of rules that allows every child to make multiplication, division, addition, subtraction and square-root calculations with unerring accuracy and at remarkable speed. A perfect entry into gaining confidence with numbers.
