\u201cHow exciting to find a book that contains practical, everyday problems where math is used. \u2018When am I ever going to use this?\u2019 is a question that causes teachers to cringe. This book provides an answer in a very fun way. As I was perusing the contents, I could see where this book could be used during trips to occupy the time of curious adolescents. What a great substitute for video games. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in expanding his or her knowledge of mathematics. How cool to add math history tidbits throughout the book!\u201d
