This book is so great for all ages, not just for students still at school. Faster mental calculation, simple tricks but very useful in daily life and the way writer Julius presents it really leads readers to the wonderful world of math in a sense. My kids (8th grader and 3rd one) devour the book at once and take turn to do ALL exercises, this fact alone proves that Mr. Julius already successful to challenge the readers to explore, to see not only the beauty of math but its application in life. Needless to say, I go through the whole book cover to cover with excitement like a student still in school. Kudos to this great book!

I bought this for myself several years ago. Very helpful "tricks" to help me with my thinking process. When my son-in-law started working as a craps-table monitor, he had to do the math of the winner in his mind, without the aid of any tools. I ordered another copy for him and he found it extremely helpful. (Now, they are able to use electronics to figure the winnings.)

5.0 out of 5 stars They Should Teach This in School!!!!
Reviewed in Canada on March 30, 2021
Verified Purchase
I am/was an A+ math student all of my life and I still learned a few tricks. This book is a very easy read and will take your arithmetic abilities to the next level. If you're terrible at math, this book will make you half decent. If you're OK at math, you will become good and if you're good at math, you will become great. This book should be a part of the education curriculum All you need is an open mind and a positive attitude. The book will do the rest. Anyone, young or old, looking to improve their math skills should start with this book

5.0 out of 5 stars Rapid maths tips and tricks
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 6, 2011

Purchased this years ago and used it to teach my nieces and nephews tricks to do maths quickly. They loved the fact that with its help they could beat their friends AND teachers at doing sums! My copy got lost in a move, so bought this copy to continue teaching the younger nieces and now great-nieces not just how to do quick math, but to love it as well. It becomes like second nature to them and even now (the older ones being in their twenties) they still amaze their friends with their speed at math!

4.0 out of 5 stars Useful to practice mental arithmetic
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 16, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have no interest in learning 'rapid tricks', but I did have a bunch of job interviews, many of which required me to brush up on my mental arithmetic skills. This book was very useful in providing lots and lots of practice questions to get my mind working quickly again. Personally, I think to do mental arithmetic you just need practice, not a bunch of rules to remember - you'll find you get used to doing your own shortcuts very quickly. But, this book was great as a source of practice problems so I can recommend it on that front.

5.0 out of 5 stars If only my school gave us this book...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 13, 2009
Verified Purchase
Awesome book. I purchased this book because I wanted to improve my financial literacy and realised that I needed to raise my maths game. It really helped me out a lot and now a lot of people say 'damn, your good with numbers'. I would also check out Vedic Mathematics; which this book touches on briefly.

If only these books were taught to primary school children then we would have Einstein's already. Because current teaching methods and books are completely outdated. Damn.
