Descriptions du produit
New Scientist, Ian Stewart
Maor's choice of topics is generally sound, sometimes brilliant, but occasionally idiosyncratic.... Maor clearly has a great love of trigonometry, formulas and all, and his enthusiasm shines through. But I have a feeling that his affection for his subject would be more likely to rub off on his readers if he had structured the book a little more thoughtfully, and had been a little less keen to include obscure calculations just because they appealed to him. If you always wanted to know where trigonometry came from, and what it's good for, you'll find plenty here to enlighten you. But if you're starting from scratch, I don't think that Delights is quite the place to begin.

Review
Maor's presentation of the historical development of the concepts and results deepens one's appreciation of them, and his discussion of the personalities involved and their politics and religions puts a human face on the subject. His exposition of mathematical arguments is thorough and remarkably easy to understand. There is a lot of material here that teachers can use to keep their students awake and interested. In short, Trigonometric Delights should be required reading for everyone who teaches trigonometry and can be highly recommended for anyone who uses it.
