Bücher von John Mason

Eine wunderbar verständliche und motivierende Anleitung zum Lernen und Lehren mathematischen Problemlösens. An einer Vielzahl ausgesuchter Beispiele zeigen die Autoren auf, wie man an eine ganz beliebige Aufgabenstellung herangeht, wie man sie erfolgreich bearbeitet und wie man daraus Erfahrungen für andere Problemstellungen ableiten kann. Der Leser lernt so die Denkprozesse, die der Mathematik zugrunde liegen, kennen und eignet sich die prinzipielle Arbeitsweise dieser nicht immer einfachen Disziplin an. Es wird kein Preis ohne Fleiß versprochen, aber doch ein gut begehbarer Weg in die Welt des abstrakten Denkens gewiesen. Damit richtet sich das Buch an alle, die ihre Fähigkeiten, mathematische Konzepte zu verstehen und anzuwenden, entdecken und vertiefen wollen. "Das Buch fördert grundlegendes, strukturiertes Denken. Es motiviert von der ersten bis zur letzten Seite!" Prof. Dr.-Ing. Christine Wahmkow, FH Stralsund "Ein sehr gelungenes Buch: gut strukturiert, anschaulich bebildert und die ¿Aha-Erlebnisse' bescheren neue Sichtweisen." Prof. Dr. Blohm, FH Konstanz "Eine gute Einführung in das Thema ¿Problemlösungsstrategien' mit vielen amüsanten Aufgaben." Prof. Dr. Georg Ohmayer, FH Weihenstephan Pressestimmen: "Das lang vergriffene "Hexeneinmaleins" ist nach vielen Anfragen unter dem neuen Titel "Mathematisch denken - Mathematik ist keine Hexerei" wieder erhältlich. [...] Das Buch ist für alle, die die mathematische Denkweise bei sich und anderen fördern wollen, ein Gewinn."

""An Essay On The Power And Harmony Of Prosaic Numbers"" is a literary work by John Mason that serves as a sequel to his previous work ""One On The Power Of Numbers And The Principles Of Harmony In Poetic Compositions."" This book explores the power and harmony of numbers in prose writing, as opposed to poetry. Mason delves into the ways in which numbers can be used to create a sense of rhythm and flow in prose writing, and how these techniques can be used to enhance the overall effectiveness of a piece of writing. The book is intended for writers, poets, and anyone interested in the art of writing. It is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the power of language and the ways in which it can be used to create beauty and meaning.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Learning and Doing MathematicsSecond EditionJohn Mason, formerly Professor of Mathematical Education at the Open UniversityLearning and Doing is for anyone keen to develop learning skills or to enhance their problem-solving powers. It will help you develop your own strategies by recognising blockages and then using the techniques of generalizing and specializing to identify routes to a solution.Examples are varied. Many are mathematical in flavour, but they are accessible to anyone with an interest in the subject and the methods proposed apply across the curriculum and indeed to everyday situations in modern life. Developed at the Open University, all the material is tried and tested.Professor Mason's style is relaxed and colloquial - accessible to all, whether a teacher wanting to use it for examples and fresh ways to inspire, or a parent or student wanted to boost their learning and broaden their mathematical thinking.Contents:¿ Specializing¿ Generalizing¿ Specializing and Generalizing Together¿ Convincing Yourself and Others¿ When is an Argument Valid?¿ Further Food for Thought¿ Five Interludes are presented between the chapter - to provoke practical mathematical thinking, and have some fun.Reviews of the First Edition"An excellent resource...an impressive, carefully chosen array of examples...I will certainly recommend it." John Baylis, The Mathematical Gazette"Fresh, lively and energetic...we should buy [his] books before they are banned."Ralph Schwarzenberger, Mathematics Teaching

"e;Astrophysics Updates"e; is intended to serve the information needs of professional astronomers and postgraduate students about areas of astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology that are rich and active research spheres. Observational methods and the latest results of astronomical research are presented as well as their theoretical foundations and interrelations. The contributed commissioned articles are written by leading exponents in a format that will appeal to professional astronomers and astrophysicists who are interested in topics outside their own specific areas of research. This collection of timely reviews may also attract the interest of advanced amateur astronomers seeking scientifically rigorous coverage.
