Book Review: Mathematics Practitioners Now Have Ideal Educational Resource

Author’s book provides definitions of nearly 1,000 mathematical terms

LONGWOOD, FL—Born in a remote village in Ghana where nobody could read or write, author Brainard Braimah dedicated his lifetime to improving the outcomes of young people through making learning accessible, relevant, and culturally acceptable. In Definitions of Some Mathematical Terms for 11-18-Year-Olds (paperback, 978-1-60477-357-6; hardcover, 978-1-60477-360-6), he provides readers with clear and simple mathematics definitions supported by examples and diagrams. The book, which defines nearly 1,000 terms, is the perfect reference for pupils, parents, and mathematics teachers who are not specialists in their field. The publication is an important resource because it explains clearly and in a simple way concepts mathematics learners will encounter, using examples to illustrate and enhance the meaning and application of key concepts.

Says Braimah, “It is hoped that the book will encourage independent learning and can be used as a revision tool. It is anticipated that the book will an ideal educational resource which will both extend and support school and home learning. [It is] ideal for anyone from high school age. The book provides detailed, understandable definitions of nearly 1,000 mathematical terms.”

Having taught mathematics both in his native Ghana and the UK for nearly 30 years, Braimah feels he has an important contribution to make to the study of the subject. He has used his extensive experience to highlight the need for such a publication and has undertaken a remarkable task in producing this for practitioners in the classroom.
