Some mathematicians will not only be remembered for their mathematical advancements, but also for their peculiar deaths; some of those gravely miscalculated! But one of the stories is distorted—can you guess which one? Peculiar Deaths combines short stories about key mathematicians from the past, with details of the mathematical advances that they made. To the puzzle of which death is made up, there is also a visual puzzle in each chapter. A great way to learn about mathematics of the past, and for Middle, Junior High, and High School students to enjoy learning and understand key concepts.
