Description:PrefaceIndia has a rich tradition in mathematics. It is however believed that all that was known in India in the past in encompassed today by modern mathematics. I was educated with this understanding. It was therefore a big surprise when in the last few years, I encountered techniques from the Indian mathematical tradition that ware amazingly simple and powerful. Besides, several of these techniques were being used by our artisans and businessmen till bvery recently. I, on the other and was unaware of most of these methods inspire of my education being heavily based on mathematics. I started talking about them, and in the last six to eight months gave a number of formal and informal talks on this subject. The enthusiastic response that I received, not only from students and teachers, but also men and women from different walks of life, motivated me to put together some of these techniques in this book. Most of what is contained here can be, and perhaps should be, taught in schools from class IV to IX. However the book is written with a larger audience in mind because I feel that more people need to know these techniques and I believe they will enjoy them.-Ashok JhunjhunwalaWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
