Mathematic’s books

The best (mis)use of an apostrophe spotted outside a city bookstore in mainland China.

An English tourist (who is a linguist professor back home) was reported to have experienced a seconds-long stroke on seeing the “Mathematic’s books” classification, and the cashier on seeing her customer’s dizziness immediately jumped to her rescue.

Magical Thinking in Mathematics

When we deceive ourselves and allow others to deceive us on myths, mysteries, and magic in mathematics, be they via half-baked concepts, faux hypotheses, fallacies, paradoxes, tricks, and the like.

How can we fall for less magical thinking in mathematics? By teaching about faulty thinking habits, exposing false assumptions or hypotheses, warning against unquestioned extrapolation or generalization of rules or formulas, and debunking irrational or conspiratorial thinking.

Paul Matheny

The One, the most powerful person in existence. Destined for greatness, he is feared by all and revered by many. He may one day save the world, or he may choose to destroy it instead. A genius, he refuses to deal with idiots.
He has amazing style and is the most attractive man to have ever walked the Earth. He also has perfect logical thinking skills.

If you wrong him, he will kill you, no questions asked. He is extremely vengeful and will get back at you no matter how long it takes.

He is Perfection.

How would I describe Paul Matheny? In a word, Perfect.
