Art of Problem Posing

Updated and expanded this second edition satisfies the same philosophical objective as the first -- to show the importance of problem posing. Although interest in mathematical problem solving increased during the past decade problem posing remained relatively ignored. <i>The Art of Problem Posing</i> draws attention to this equally important act and is the innovator in the field. <p/>Special features include: <p/>* an exploration ofthe logical relationship between problem posing and problem solving <p/>* a special chapter devoted to teaching problem posing as a separate course <p/>* sketches drawings diagrams and cartoons that illustrate the schemes proposed <p/>* a special section on writing in mathematics<br>
