Book Description
Get Smart!

This astonishing book shows you how, through the application of simple mathematics -- things you have learned or should have learned in high school -- you can develop your mind to razor sharpness and your memory to steel-trap effectiveness.

In 452 riveting pages, Gerardo Joffe takes you through:

1. Review of Arithmetic: Things you should know, but may have forgotten -- and some very important things that even your math teacher didn't know about.

2. The 16-Level Paradigm of Multiplication: An astonishing journey through interactions of numbers. Here is where your mind will get its initial sharpening.

3. A Few Full Trips Through the 16-Level Paradigm, where your mind and your memory will get their final honing and polish.

4. The Algebra of the 16-Level Paradigm: This is optional, but even those who "hate math" will find it fascinating. This section also contains marvelous stuff about probability, combinations and permutations, "propositions" (earn money with bets!), and first-degree and second-degree equations. It's a goldmine of wonderful information!

5. Final Wrap-Up and Odds & Ends: In this section, you will get your final homework problems, and we will show you how you can get your Certificate of Achievement, and (really!) how you can get this book for FREE! And finally, you will learn how to instantly determine the day of the week for any date in the 20th and 21st centuries. ... Read more
