Kim Yong-un et al.: Fun School Trip 2: The World of Logic (30th Anniversary Edition)

This is the 30th anniversary edition (revised edition) of *A Fun Math Journey* (4 volumes), which opened a new chapter in popular mathematics books by immersing countless readers in a magical world of mathematics. The content has been reviewed and proofread once, and the text and cover design have been revised. Volume 2 contains stories about logical fallacies hidden in history and everyday life. What is the secret of the mathematical way of thinking hidden inside a vending machine? Is infinity infinite no matter how much it is divided? Was the rainfall during Noah's Great Flood only 25mm? Why was Gulliver's meal in Lilliput enough for 1,728 people? The foundation of mathematics is not calculation, but logical thinking. By examining the relationship between mathematics, which is based on contemplation, and logic, this book cultivates the power of logical thinking to uncover the truth through argumentation. From the vast world of numbers ranging from the finite to the infinite, to the logical battles between mathematicians traversing induction and deduction, and empiricism and argumentation, the book is filled with content that offers the joy of thinking.
