Cabinet of Mathematical Curiosities



A reaction paper on Cabinet of Mathematical Curiosities

By: Ian Stewart


  In life we encounter trials that make us a better person, likewise a person that is outlawed by problems making us suffer from it. People handle problems differently, some handle it with ease, while others are misguided by it. Likewise, birds travel to different places when the seasons are starting to shift, finding a better way in order to manifest an absolute solitude during climate change.
                
                  Ian Stewart is a realist that implies knowledge by seeking it in a different manner, loving something that is against the odds, a very good concept as to how define a thing that is not similar to their habitual ways. Yes, mathematics may be interpreted in several ways by different people, described and derived by its many purpose.
                      
              The book Cabinet of Mathematical Curiosities opens up the imaginative perspective that will became the stimulus for exercising the hunger for mathematical and logical learning, thus developing our awareness for the amazing discoveries that hides beneath the mathematical formulas, and theories, uncovering knowledge beyond human imagination.

  Ian Stewart gives a perspective that mathematics have different regions, branches that will navigate into different parts, thus giving us a better picture of it, games is an example, the mathematical patterns embedded within the game symbolizes that it is a branch of mathematics. Like Ian Stewart we can find a better way of appreciating things, being open-minded is always needed to become a genuine individual that will symbolize an entity who would propagate as a stimulus for others appreciation.
