Beschreibung
Ethnomathematics introduces the mathematical ideas of people in traditional cultures often omitted from discussions of mathematics. Topics such as Numbers: Words and Symbols; Tracing Graphs in the Sand; The Logic of Kin Relation; Chance and Strategy in Games and Puzzles; and The Organization and Modeling of Space are traced in various cultures, including the Inuit, Navajo, and Iroquois of North America; the Inca of South America; the Malekula, Warlpiri, Maori, and Caroline Islanders of Oceania; and the Tshokwe, Bushoong, and Kpelle of Africa. Mathematics Magazine called this "A splendid book, well worth reading, using in courses and loaning to friends who think they don't like mathematics."
