Publisher's Synopsis
It's not always easy to see how math fits into everyday life. Designed for non-math majors, Thinking Mathematically uses diverse, interesting applications to show how truly relevant and fun math can be: the value of online classes, modeling coronavirus cases, the highest-paid celebrities, and many others. The 8th Edition updates its well-known exercises and examples with new topics and data, explores free online technology and resources, and much more. Blitzer's distinctive, relatable voice shows how our world is both mathematical and meaningful.
