Here is a whole new way of looking at math that liberates math phobes from their anxiety, enables business people to do their jobs more effectively, challenges and informs math buffs, and provides educators with the tools to teach math easily and effectively. How can it do all that? By reuniting numbers and meaning, two subjects that should never have been separated in the first place. Entertaining, anecdotal, and immensely practical, this extraordinary book offers a revolutionary way of looking at math as a language, something that we’ve all heard before but which has never made sense until now. Mathsemantics is that rare book that will change the way you look at the world-and provide the most sensible and inspiring answer yet to the problem of American innumeracy.

Eye opening … a good antidote to innumeracy. -Library Journal
