Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an innovative exploration of arithmetic, an essential branch of mathematics with roots that stretch back across millennia, that has widespread applications even today. The author approaches the subject from a practical perspective, considering the role of arithmetic in fields including economics, engineering, and accounting. This book introduces readers to concepts and methods that have been developed to simplify complex calculations, from the 2,500-year-old Babylonian counting system to the invention of logarithms and even the abacus. An extensive range of questions are posed and solved using these techniques throughout the book, aiding readers in understanding and applying these principles for themselves. It offers insights into the underlying mathematical concepts that have remained consistent throughout history, as well as the variety of methods and approaches that have been developed for utilizing these ideas. Through this balanced approach, this book offers a fresh look at a subject that has, surprisingly, undergone little change in its fundamentals despite the immense technological and scientific advances of recent centuries.
