Book excerpt: An instant New York Times Bestseller! “Unreasonably entertaining . . . reveals how geometric thinking can allow for everything from fairer American elections to better pandemic planning.” —The New York Times From the New York Times-bestselling author of How Not to Be Wrong—himself a world-class geometer—a far-ranging exploration of the power of geometry, which turns out to help us think better about practically everything. How should a democracy choose its representatives? How can you stop a pandemic from sweeping the world? How do computers learn to play Go, and why is learning Go so much easier for them than learning to read a sentence? Can ancient Greek proportions predict the stock market? (Sorry, no.) What should your kids learn in school if they really want to learn to think? All these are questions about geometry. For real. If you're like most people, geometry is a sterile and dimly remembered exercise you gladly left behind in the dust of ninth grade, along with your braces and active romantic interest in pop singers. If you recall any of it, it's plodding through a series of miniscule steps only to prove some fact about triangles that was obvious to you in the first place. That's not geometry. Okay, it is geometry, but only a tiny part, which has as much to do with geometry in all its flush modern richness as conjugating a verb has to do with a great novel. Shape reveals the geometry underneath some of the most important scientific, political, and philosophical problems we face. Geometry asks: Where are things? Which things are near each other? How can you get from one thing to another thing? Those are important questions. The word "geometry"comes from the Greek for "measuring the world." If anything, that's an undersell. Geometry doesn't just measure the world—it explains it. Shape shows us how.

Download or read book Taking Shape A New Contract Between Architecture and Nature written by Susannah Hagan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-08-22 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Taking Shape' explores the evolution of scientific and academic theories that have resulted in the concept of sustainability. Susannah Hagan uses this as a basis to argue for developments in the future and argues that these theories are not 'just an intellectual and aesthetic regression' as they are often perceived to be. By focusing on the impact of the new theories of sustainable technology and new materials in architecture, Hagan moves the discourse and practice of environmental sustainability within architecture towards a greater degree of awareness of both its cultural significance and cultural potential. In short, it demonstrates the capacity of sustainable architecture to embrace cultural and technical innovation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do you fold a sheet of paper into the shape of a whale? How doyou measure the area of a pizza pie? How can you draw a circlewithin a circle without lifting your pencil from the paper? Now you can discover the answers to these and other fascinatingquestions about elementary geometry--the study of shapes. Packedwith illustrations, Geometry for Every Kid uses simple problems andactivities to teach about acute and obtuse angles, parallel andperpendicular lines, plane and space figures, and much more! Byarranging the pieces of an intriguing Chinese puzzle called atangram, you'll explore all the different shapes you can form.You'll also learn how to create a colorful 3-D drawing that seemsto rise right off the page! And, by building a geoboard, you'lldiscover a quick, fun way to compare the area of differentgeometric figures. Each of the activities is broken down into its purpose, a list ofmaterials, step-by-step instructions, expected results, and an easyto understand explanation. Every project has been pretested and canbe performed safely and inexpensively in the classroom or athome.

Download or read book The Social Contract Emile written by Jean-Jacques Rousseau and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-17 with total page 659 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Contract, originally published as On the Social Contract; or, Principles of Political Rights, is a book in which Rousseau theorized about the best way to establish a political community in the face of the problems of commercial society, which he had already identified in his Discourse on Inequality (1754). The Social Contract helped inspire political reforms or revolutions in Europe, especially in France. The Social Contract argued against the idea that monarchs were divinely empowered to legislate. Rousseau asserts that only the people, who are sovereign, have that all-powerful right. Emile, or On Education is a treatise on the nature of education and on the nature of man. Jean-Jacques Rousseau considered it to be the "best and most important" of all his writings. Due to a section of the book entitled "Profession of Faith of the Savoyard Vicar", Emile was banned in Paris and Geneva and was publicly burned in 1762, the year of its first publication. During the French Revolution, Emile served as the inspiration for what became a new national system of education.
