5.0 out of 5 stars A book for kids of all ages, April 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Build Your Own Polyhedra (Paperback)
I used this book to generate additional projects for my honors geometry students. The students all loved it. They were able to create beautiful objects that also had real mathematical significance. I have also used this book with friends. Creating these objects with others is a great way to initiate mathematical conversations with "non-mathematicians". "Real" mathematicians also dig it. If you enjoy math or think you might enjoy math, try this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Use the Suggested Materials, December 6, 2002

Kaleb (Marysville, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Build Your Own Polyhedra (Paperback)
I had touble with this book at first because I thought that I could just skip the given materials, use paper and be fine. I was wrong. Once you use the gummed mailing tape miracles happen. Anyone can create the polyhedra in this book with a little gummed mailing tape and some time on your hands. I have really enjoyed this book.
