Dr Mike Goldsmith was Head of Acoustics at the National Physical Laboratory from 1987 to 2007, where he researched noise, speech, language, sound and artificially intelligent machinery. He is the author of many children’s science books, including Legendary Journeys: Space, Snot Collectors, Spider Ladders and Other Bonkers Inventions, Train your Brain to Be a Maths Genius and Discord: the story of noise.
This book thinks you're a maths genius. So chuck away your calculator and get stuck in! Inside you'll do all sorts of mathematical stuff, but not like anything you've done in your maths classes in school. You'll break codes, draw cool patterns, hunt for objects and get wet feet. There are even portable maths lab pages for you to cut out, fold, and play games with. By the end, you'll be an official maths genius - and you won't even have added 2 plus 2.
