Building mathematical knowledge in the context of issues relevant to every global citizen today, this text takes an approach that empowers students of all disciplines to understand and reason with quantitative information. Whatever conclusions may be reached on a given topic, this book will prepare the reader to think critically about their own and other people’s arguments and to support them with careful, mathematical reasoning.. . Topics are grouped in themes of measurement, flow, connectivity, change, risk, and decision-making. Mathematical thinking is at the fore throughout, as students learn to model sustainability on local, regional, and global scales. Exercises emphasize concepts, while projects build and challenge communication skills. With no prerequisites beyond high school algebra, instructors will find this book arich resource for engaging all majors in the mathematics classroom. .From the Foreword..No longer will you be just a spectator when people give you quantitative information—you will become an active participant who ca | 出版日期 | Textbook 2018 | 关键词 | Sustainability; Networks and decisions; Mathematics for sustainability textbook; Mathematics of planet | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-76660-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-09548-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-76660-7Series ISSN 2523-8647 Series E-ISSN 2523-8655 | issn_series | 2523-8647 | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018 |
