Reading about math was not like this when I was young. Here are my most favorite books - all yummy! ... from board books to adult stories, from number pairs to infinity and surreal numbers.

The Magical Illustration of Arthur Rackham

Rip Van Winkle Washington Irving Arthur Rackham was an illustrator in the late 19th and early 20th century. He was born in London in 1867.
Background of this collection U nited States history cannot fully be understood without studying its rural life and agricultural heritage. Agriculture fueled the social and economic engine which built our nation, which generated our state and local governments, which stimulated and regulated pioneering, farming, land tenure, and the trading of agricultural commodities. Much of what defines the national character of Americans, our cultural values and morés, is rooted in our agrarian past. The farm family was the basic social unit molding American life for nearly 200 years. Agriculture has transformed the American countryside and provided its rural strength.

http://home.comcast.net/~antaylor1/usmccommandant.html The intent of the Commandant in issuing this list (MCBUL 1500) is stated as follows: "In an era of constrained resources, our professional reading program is designed to provide Marines with an intellectual framework to study warfare and enhance their thinking and decision making skills. The mind, like the body, grows soft with inactivity. All Marines must understand that mental fitness is as demanding and as important as physical fitness, for both require commitment and perseverance. In a world characterized by rapid change and great uncertainty, our reading program will act as a combat multiplier by providing all Marines with a common frame of reference and historical perspective on warfare, human factors in combat and decisionmaking.
