Another brand-new title in Barrons Essential Atlas science series
explains principles of mathematics, which is the universal language
of all science. This volume opens with a brief, enlightening
description of the differing numeric systems devised by various
cultures. The multitude of practical applications involving
mathematics are then shown and explained, including measurements of
weight and volume, monetary calculations, the binary system and its
application in computer science, and much more. Architecture is
discussed in terms of its fundamental relationship to principles of
geometry. The circle, angles, and trigonometric functions are
described, and fundamental principles of calculus and probability are
touched upon. This easy-to-comprehend volume makes imaginative use of
charts and diagrams to explain mathematical reasoning. There are
color photos and illustrations on every page.
