Why can no two people ever see the same rainbow? What happens when you
pull a pop song apart into pure sine waves and play it back on a piano?
Why does the wake behind a duck always form an angle of exactly 39
degrees? And what did mathematicians have to do with the great pig
stampede of 2012? The answer to each of these questions can be found in
the triangle.
In Love Triangle, stand-up comedian, ex-maths teacher and Sunday Times
number one bestselling author Matt Parker is on a mission to prove why
we should all show a lot more love for triangles, along with the useful
trigonometry and geometry they enable. To make his point, he uses
triangles to create his own digital avatar, survive a harrowing
motorcycle ride, cut a sandwich into three equal parts, and measure
tall buildings while wearing silly shoes. But soon these hare-brained
experiments begin to reveal a genuinely important truth: triangles are
the hidden pattern beneath the surface of the contemporary world, used
in everything from GPS to CGI via Spotify streaming, the play button
and your best mate’s triangle tattoo.
Join Matt Parker as he demonstrates why there’s more to triangles than
Pythagoras and SOHCAHTOA. Triangles are everything and everything is
triangles.

This book proves there are messages in the Beale Treasure Location
Code and it gives the first genuine method for decoding them. See
for yourself. It's obvious the keys to decode are embedded in the
code numbers themselves. Just add the code number digits. The best
bit is the letter from St Louis has been with us all the time. Turn
the letters of St Louis into numbers, S=7 or 19. T=20 or 6. And so
on.

Wildland fires have an irreplaceable role in sustaining many of our
forests, shrublands and grasslands. They can be used as controlled
burns or occur as free-burning wildfires, and can sometimes be
dangerous and destructive to fauna, human communities and natural
resources. Through scientific understanding of their behaviour, we
can develop the tools to reliably use and manage fires across
landscapes in ways that are compatible with the constraints of
modern society while benefiting the ecosystems. The science of
wildland fire is incomplete, however. Even the simplest fire
behaviours - how fast they spread, how long they burn and how large
they get - arise from a dynamical system of physical processes
interacting in unexplored ways with heterogeneous biological,
ecological and meteorological factors across many scales of time
and space. The physics of heat transfer, combustion and ignition,
for example, operate in all fires at millimetre and millisecond
scales but wildfires can become conflagrations that burn for months
and exceed millions of hectares. Wildland Fire Behaviour: Dynamics,
Principles and Processes examines what is known and unknown about
wildfire behaviours. The authors introduce fire as a dynamical
system along with traditional steady-state concepts. They then
break down the system into its primary physical components,
describe how they depend upon environmental factors, and explore
system dynamics by constructing and exercising a nonlinear model.
The limits of modelling and knowledge are discussed throughout but
emphasised by review of large fire behaviours. Advancing knowledge
of fire behaviours will require a multidisciplinary approach and
rely on quality measurements from experimental research, as covered
in the final chapters.

Dr Zoltan Dienes is a world-famous theorist and tireless
practitioner of the 'new mathematics' - an approach to mathematics
learning which uses games, songs and dance to make it more
appealing to children. Holder of numerous honorary degrees, Dr
Dienes has had a long and fruitful career, breaking new ground and
gaining many followers with his revolutionary ideas of learning
often complex mathematical concepts in such fun ways that children
are often unaware that they are learning anything. This is an
honest account of an academic radical, covering his sometimes
unconventional childhood in Hungary, France, Germany and Britain,
his peripatetic academic career, his successes and failures and his
personal affairs. Occasionally sad or moving, frequently amusing
and always fascinating, this autobiography shares some of the
intelligence, spirit and humanity that have made Dr Dienes such a
landmark figure in mathematics education. A 'must-read' for anyone
with a professional interest in the field, this is also an
absorbing and frank book for anyone interested in the life of a man
of ideas who was not afraid to take on the might of the
traditionalist educational establishment.
