Vedic Mathematics

By Jagadguru S. Maharaja, Bharati Krsna Tirthaji, Bharati Krishna Tirtha

Book Overview

This epich-making and monumental work on Vedic Mathematics unfolds a new method of approach. It relates to the truth of numbers and magnitudes equally applicable to all sciences and arts. The book brings to light how great and true knowledge is born of intuition, quite different from modern Western method. The ancient Indian method and its secret techniques are examined and shown to be capable of solving various problems of mathematics. The universe we live in has a basic mathematical structure obeying the rules of mathematical measures and relations. All the subjects in mathematics--Multiplication, Division, Factorization, Equations, Calculus, Analytical Conics, etc.--are dealt with in forty chapters, vividly working out all problems, in the easiest ever method discovered so far.

Fine Vedic Math Book, But..

I wish I had learned Vedic Math in School / at least in University. My friend (Professor) recommended this book and his kids adopted Vedic Math and have been toppers in Math! So, I did some research and bought this book and was amazed by the knowledge it has - 16 basic formula / sutras! I myself got interested and vowed to teach this practical and best approach for speed Math to my children. This book is NOT meant for beginners. I highly recommend the following definitive book on Vedic Math: ~ The Cosmic Calculator - Kenneth Williams & Mark Gaskell (easy-to-understand; this 5 vol set is used in national curriculum in England & Wales)

Good, but a little confusing

This book is far more in depth than other 'speed mathematics', thus a little difficult to understand. Perhaps the problem lies in the translation; I really can't say. The chapters involving factorization of simple and hard quadratics and cubics were too hard for me to figure out, so I stopped there. Other topics later on in the book are certainly not for the lay reader: Factorisation and Differential Calculus Apollonius Theorem Analyitcal Conics It would be much appreciated if anyone can direct a primer for this book. Currently, most of the speed math books only involve simple arithmetic.

Classic book on Vedic Mathematics

This is now the de-facto epitome of Vedic Math condensed from various parchments strewn all over - what was part of the Atharvana Veda which was lost to India over the centuries. If you wish to master this lost science (err.. Math) that was lost to generations of mankind, get this book. You will be amazed at the myriad ways to go about solving simple math problems.

Excellent book for Vedic Mathematics

This is an excellent book for vedic mathematics. I recommend to everyone!!
