From the Back Cover
This book has been written to give the reader a insight into the design of mechanisms as seen through the eyes of a mathematician. It can be used in a variety of ways. An individual could work through the book from cover to cover as a text book, but a teacher is more likely to use the book selectively, using it as a resource of ideas and activities to enrich his or her teaching of mathematics or technology.
