Editorial Reviews

Review

"The example and exercises have been arranged with care and the grading of the latter shows every evidence of the same pedagogic thoroughness. The exercises have been beautifully structured with many stimulating questions going well beyond the merely routine. For this reason this book deserves to serve as a model for textbooks at this level." The Hindu, feb, 27, 1996 "The various problems of arithmetic, geometry and algebra have been elucidated and solved in a most lucid manner by usinf these Sutras. They make arduous mathematical situations look terribly simple to solve. This book is highly recommended to the seekers of knowledge of mathematics." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

1.0 out of 5 stars Vedic Mathematics for Schools, April 6, 2003
By 
Anthony Lealand (Christchurch, New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Vedic Mathematics for Schools, Book 1 (Bk.1) (Paperback)
Simply a waste of time. Yes they are a very clever series of tricks to do arithmetic in your head, but with numerous exceptions and caveats. A bright student may look at these with some interest to see why they work, but for the vast majority of students there is no value in more rules to be learnt and certainly no understanding of basic maths to be gained.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, August 25, 2000
By 
Vijay Krishna (Chennai, TN India) - See all my reviews
This book was sort of okay, but I found VEDIC MATHEMATICS, based on the 16 vedic sutras more interesting than this.
