It is accessible, enjoyable, and engaging. Featuring relatable student characters engaging in conversations about math, this book brings complex topics to life. Through interesting stories and real-world problems, readers will learn about the best ways to approach and solve mathematical challenges.Whether you're a college student, a pre-college student, or simply someone who loves math, this book is a fun and engaging read that will take you on a mathematical adventure. As Albert Einstein once said, "Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think." This book achieves this goal by training readers to think mathematically, while enjoying the journey.
