Like its predecessor, Proofs without Words, this book is a
collection of pictures or diagrams that help the reader see why a
particular mathematical statement may be true and how one could
begin to go about proving it. While in some proofs without words an
equation or two may appear to help guide that process, the emphasis
is clearly on providing visual clues to stimulate mathematical
thought. The proofs in this collection are arranged by topic into
five chapters: geometry and algebra; trigonometry, calculus and
analytic geometry; inequalities; integer sums; and sequences and
series. Teachers will find that many of the proofs in this
collection are well suited for classroom discussion and for helping
students to think visually in mathematics.
