In A Mind for Numbers, Dr. Oakley lets us in on the secrets to learning effectively secrets that even dedicated and successful students wish they d known earlier. Contrary to popular belief, math requires creative, as well as analytical, thinking.

Most people think that there s only one way to do a problem, when in actuality, there are often a number of different solutions you just need the creativity to see them. For example, there are more than three hundred different known proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. In short, studying a problem in a laser-focused way until you reach a solution is not an effective way to learn. Rather, it involves taking the time to step away from a problem and allow the more relaxed and creative part of the brain to take over.

The learning strategies in this book apply not only to math and science, but to any subject in which we struggle. We all have what it takes to excel in areas that don't seem to come naturally to us at first, and learning them does not have to be as painful as we might think.
