Whether you loved or loathed high-school math, Aftermath will change how you think about math--and life.
Forget rote math's dry formulas and abstract symbols. This book illuminates the fascinating math ideas that are essential to you and your loved ones--ideas totally ignored in school.
"In the age of AI and data, we badly need to rethink the way we teach math in U.S. schools. Dintersmith has joyfully illustrated how we can pull the subject out of irrelevance in the eyes of our students--a must read for teachers and parents alike."
--Steve Levitt, Co-Author, Freakonomics and SuperFreakonomics
Author Biography
Ted Dintersmith holds a Ph.D. in Engineering from Stanford and a B.A. with High Honors in Physics and English from William & Mary. His
innovation career includes being ranked the top-performing U.S. venture capitalist for the years 1995-1999. His books (including What School Could Be), films (including Most Likely to Succeed and Multiple Choice), and philanthropic efforts (including the non-profit WhatSchoolCouldBe.org) call for education priorities that help people capitalize on -rather than be victimized by - the tsunami of innovation reshaping society. In 2012, he was appointed by President Obama to represent the U.S. at the United Nations, focusing on youth potential. In 2018, he received the NEA's prestigious "Friend of Education" Award.
