Life of Fred: Geometry Expanded Edition

Dr. Stanley Schmidt

Never again hear the question which many math students have: "When are we ever gonna use this stuff?" or "Math is boring!"

No other textbooks are like these. Each text is written in the style of a novel with a humorous story line. Each section tells part of the life of Fred Gauss and how, in the course of his life, he encounters the need for the math and then learns the methods. Tons of solved examples.

One day in Fred's Life in which he:

Falls in love! Her eyes were absolutely fascinating.

Writes opera! Almost half of Boat Ride on Lake Tiberius inside.

Buys Hecks Kitchen! With stainless steel bars and lots of heat.

Does all of geometry! From a point and a line to the 14th dimension.


All fun! Just open and enjoy.
