The Story of Mathematics
It is said that mathematics began long ago in Early Egypt. The Nile River would flood on occasion and wash away all landmarks and monuments. People needed a way to know where their land was after these floods, so methods of earth measurement (later to be called Geometry) were invented. The Greeks, always thinking, picked up those techniques, developed them further, and added new ideas such as Algebra and Trigonometry. Math was off and running. It was used in oceanic exploration. It was interesting. It was fun. Mathematics was used to help lea about the ways in which the world worked, what it looked like, and how much things cost. Calculus, statistics, and income taxes were invented.
