With a foreword by Tim Rice, this book will change the way you see
the world. Why is it better to buy a lottery ticket on a Friday?
Why are showers always too hot or too cold? And what's the
connection between a rugby player taking a conversion and a tourist
trying to get the best photograph of Nelson's Column? These and
many other fascinating questions are answered in this entertaining
and highly informative book, which is ideal for anyone wanting to
remind themselves - or discover for the first time - that maths is
relevant to almost everything we do. Dating, cooking, travelling by
car, gambling and even life-saving techniques have links with
intriguing mathematical problems, as you will find explained here.
Whether you have a PhD in astrophysics or haven't touched a maths
problem since your school days, this book will give you a fresh
understanding of the world around you.
