Mathematics Calendar 2007

The Mathematics Calendar continues to awe its audience with its cutting edge math topics, its all new exciting graphics, and mind boggling problems. This calendar is a hit with teachers, students, engineers, math buffs and puzzle lovers.

Now more than ever THE MATHEMATICS CALENDAR reminds us again and again how mathematics describes nature, impacts the sciences, is essential to architecture, is inseparable from music, influences the arts, exercises and tantalizes the mind with its puzzles and problems, stimulates and creates new technologies and reveals the multi-dimensions of our world and universe through its ever evolving ideas and insights.

THE MATHEMATICS CALENDAR has given thousands of people a new perspective about math ­ how it can be fun, fascinating and intriguing. It's no wonder that its popularity continues to grow.

Among the 2007 twelve monthly topics are: ­It's Heating Up, global warming & the math behind it ­ Universes, Branes & CERN ­ What Do You Mean Undefined? a mathematical parable ­The Sunflower & Nicomedes' Conchoid­ The Computer History Museum ­ Who's Talking Math? ­ Points of Deception, anamorphic art ­ Mathematics & Bridges ­ Brain Exercises ­ Checkmate, chess then and now ­ 2 is Odd .

It's more than a calendar ­ each month features an intriguing math topic and each day a tantalizing problem ­ it's a treasure trove of information, games, puzzles and stories, illustrating how mathematics influences, touches, and impacts our lives. It is uniquely designed so that each day of every month has a problem whose solution is the date. The brain twister lies in figuring how to arrive at the answer. For each month the problems range from arithmetic to calculus.
