A fun introduction to the main ideas of mathematics. In Think Like a Mathematician explains the philosophical arguments around questions such as: Was mathematics invented or discovered? Can you trust the numbers (statistics)? Why do we have negative numbers? How much math does a pineapple know? Because mathematics is all around us, governs how information is presented to us and how we understand it, underpins all science, and has been responsible for humanity's incredible progress through the ages, this book provides an accessible approach to understanding all of these things about mathematics-and more-in the context of everyday life.
