If you look at math by eyes you see symbols, by brain knowledge, by heart truth, and by soul God. This book is about flying over math-land, enjoying the view, and landing safely.
It seems inconceivable how much we rely on mathematics/numbers in our daily lives and how natural it feels. Our birth is announced by a set of numbers representing the time, date, and our height and weight. We become a functioning member of society only after a Social Security number is assigned to us. Our health and fitness are evaluated using numbers representing our blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, and so on. From that point onward, every action performed and every life encountered becomes part of our ongoing use of mathematics/numbers.
This book traces applications of mathematics. The goal is to find a way to delight readers about the discipline and open the door for them to see its beauty by presenting a variety of applications. It is particularly useful for the individuals with some mathematics background or interests.
About the author
In search of the meaning of life, the author dove into the self-improvement world, psychology, human desires and weaknesses, sports, writing, and poetry. His goal was to understand a few of his very many feelings including his pains, depression, fears, and anxiety. Music, science, especially mathematical sciences, sports, and nature have become his guide. This has led him to write several books including two on earthquakes, six on mathematical sciences, two on poetry, and one on philosophy of life. He has traveled to many countries and has made long-term visits to several universities including Harvard, Princeton, Penn, and UCLA.
Today, he lives with his wife in a small beautiful college town in Pennsylvania. He has two sons and a granddaughter. He loves people, music, nature, and mathematics, and plays racquetball, tennis, and, occasionally, soccer.
