Synopsis
British maverick Lewis Carroll successfully combines his inimitable sense of humor with his transparent logical reasoning in one of the most interesting books ever written about mathematical pedagogy, "Euclid and His Modern Rivals". Required reading not only for experts in mathematical curriculum development but also for all of Carroll's admirers, this book is expertly written with razor-sharp wit. It is hard to find a funnier or more enjoyable book on such a subject that is commonly regarded as academic and far removed from everyday life; no one but the author of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" could rise to this kind of challenge and walk away triumphant.
