The Glass Wall: Why Mathematics Can Seem Difficult
Frank Smith
Here, Frank Smith aims to help the reader understand why some people find the world of mathematics so compelling while others find it so difficult. This volume examines two different worlds: the ""physical world"", and the ""world of mathematics"", and the glass wall that can exist between them.
