About this title

Review

I purchased this book with the intent of showing my Math Team members some of the "tricks" that are shown in this book for use in math competitions, but I have also ended up using this material in my Algebra 2 classes. The information provided is well worth the price and has already payed big dividends. My Algebra 2 students learned how to solve systems of linear equations MUCH faster and easier than using matrices on a graphing calculator...this is quite a feat! My Math Team members can now mentally multiply 2- and 3-digit numbers and can square any 2-digit number. They learned this all within 1 week after I received the book. I am incorporating also how to do mental math so my students develop a sense of how numbers work...some of the mystery of numbers has been dispelled. I only received Vedic Mathematics the week before Thanksgiving break and I have yet to delve deeper into its secrets, but I have already glimpsed the power within its pages. I have also begun to show my 5th grade son some of the methods for multiplying and dividing 2- and 3-digit numbers on paper in a way that is shorter and faster using only one line instead of using multiple partial products. I will definitely look into incorporating these methods into my regular curriculum and maybe even teach a separate tutoring section for the state high-stakes tests (they are the scourge of real teaching). --By Pythagorus on December 1, 2011

This is an excellent book. It is very easy to read and to understand. The mathematical methods explained are easy to use and remember. I am using the information in the book to teach math to my four year old great-grandson. I recommend this book to everyone who desires to understand useful mathematics and to those who want to teach children mathematics. --By Nicholas A. De Martinis on July 25, 2010
