Jack Appreciates Math

by Tuesday J. Johnson

The book demonstrates how math is integrated into everything from personal finance, to nutrition and exercise, to scheduling. Calculating probability is linked to Powerball and Mega Millions. Modular arithmetic pops up in check digits, clocks and calendars, and personal data. <p><p> Students who think they don’t use or need math will gain a greater appreciation of the Fibonacci Sequence, the Golden ratio, and Hamiltonian circuits as they see how this “math stuff” can and does play a meaningful and important role in what they do and how they live. <p> Jack Appreciates Math is written for standard liberal arts math courses for non-majors. It can also be used in high school life skills courses or as a refresher for those who use math in everyday applications.

Jack at the Helm (The Berenson Schemes #3)

by Lisa Doan

Jack's parents have bought a farmhouse in Nepal. It'll be the site of a new religion―their latest get-rich-quick scheme. Sure, the Berensons don't know quite how to get to the place. But once they arrive, their plan is sure to work. When the Berenson family's travels leave Jack lost in the wilderness of Nepal, a patched-up old raft is the only way to track down his mom and dad. At least this time, Jack has company. He's riding with Harry from Connecticut, a traveling dude who has been trying to find himself―and who also wound up stranded. As Jack and Harry ride down a winding river, they'll have to watch out for rocks, rapids, and even crocodiles!
