Understand the Fun and Beauty in
Mathematical Concepts
Humans have been having fun and games with mathematics
for thousands of years. Along the way, they’ve discovered the amazing
utility of this field—in science, engineering, finance, games of chance,
and many other aspects of life. The 24 half-hour lectures of The Joy
of Mathematics celebrate the sheer joy of mathematics, taught by a
mathematician who is literally a magician with numbers.
Professor Arthur T. Benjamin of Harvey Mudd College is renowned for
his feats of mental calculation performed before audiences at schools,
museums, conferences, and other venues. His teaching has been repeatedly
honored by the Mathematical Association of America, the nation’s largest
professional mathematical society. Throughout these lectures, Professor
Benjamin shows how everything in mathematics is magically connected—
how the beautiful and often imposing edifice that has given us algebra,
geometry, trigonometry, calculus, probability, and so much else is based
on nothing more than fooling around with numbers.
