Vedic Mathematics For Schools Book-2
Book II, consisting of 24 chapters, eight per school term, extends the list to nine more "Sutras" to serve the needs of first year students of senior school leading to 11-plus examination. Vedic Mathematics throws open a welcome opportunity for mathelets or whizkids to hone their skills and win laurels through display of mental feat in giving one-line quick responses to mathematical calculations and manipulations. P.K. SRINIVASAN J.T. Glover rightly states, mathematics has two directions--an outer and an inner. The outer direction is fulfilled by applying the mathematical formulae. The inner direction is the investigation of the real nature of the working phenomena from the origin of man or universe up to the ultimate reality. There are many more interesting and intelligent short cuts in multiplication, division and so on. This book also demonstrates how Vedic Mathematics belongs not only to an hoary antiquity but also is... as modern as the day after tomorrow.` S.V.U. ORIENTAL JOURNAL Well-written, this book supplements Bharati Krishna Thirtha`s `Vedic Mathematics` published by the same publisher...As against attempts by earlier writers, the presentation, the illustrations and the exercises are all executed very well. PROF. M.S. RANGACHARI "The book has been neatly printed and moderately priced. For its immense intellectual worth, it is highly recommended to the seekers of knowledge of mathematics." --Vedic Astrology
