Numbers
Colson, Rob, 1971-2024
Book
Maths is all around you; it can be seen everywhere in nature and in the human-made world. In 'Numbers', find out how binary numbers help computers to run games and videos, how square numbers are used for measuring the space in a building, and how musical rhythms are counted through sequences of beats. Simple artworks illustrate each concept to help visual learners get to grips with mathematical concepts and to encourage children to open their minds to how maths is an important part of the buildings we live in, the games we play and the ways we live our lives.
