This book is written in the hoped of sharing the joys found in the study of mathematics. Mathematics can help us unlock the mysteries of our universe, but beyond that, conquering math’s can be personally satisfying.This book is unique in that it has covered the topics unlike other books on the market using the structured approach. The format of the book is different from most textbooks. The use of the structured approach brings a new dimension to mathematics.This book is not recommended as a substitute for other mathematics textbooks, but as an additional learning tool that can assist math’s students. On its own, the book is not a recipe for success in mathematics. The key to success in math’s is a regular practice and constant revision.The book can be tackled in any way as the user sees fit. The arrangement of the topics does not signify that they should be necessarily covered in the order as presented. However, to obtain maximum benefit from the book all the topics should be covered thoroughly.The emphasis in this book is different from most books in the genre for the following reasons: Firstly, the structured approach makes, students realize how easy it is to perform mathematical operations and computations. Secondly and more fundamental, the structured approach is not being applied because it does not occur to the student to use it. Thirdly, and tragically, no one in their educational experience has stressed the importance of applying it. Fourth, it presents new terminology that has not yet been applied in math before. Fifth, it contains an unusually large number of questions per topic that are fresh, original and challenging at the same time. Finally, due to lack of knowledge, no one teaches the structured approach in the same way this book will show. The Untold Story of Mathematics aims to complement to a lesser extent, the contributions that these men and women have made. The legacy that these great mathematicians have made need to be preserved and maintained for future generations to benefit from, this being the main reason I wrote this book. The material covered in this book dates back from the Medieval Period to the modern era. This book revisits popular concepts packaging them in an entirely different format to satisfy the needs of the math student in the modern era. Bearing this in mind it is the desire of the author to rekindle the interest in math from the students –itself a tough challenge. As George Bernard Shaw once said, “A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”
