We'll meet on the last Saturday of every month, whenever our schedules permit. Just the five of us. Brunch. Either at our houses or breakfast joints or our clubs. Catch up with our lives. Meditate together a bit. Tell each other feel-good stories. How does that sound?' Just the thing for a group of forty-something women who feel their lives need a pickme-up. But even the most straightforward plan might lead to complex consequences. A dancing diva meditates herself into a torrid love affair with the thirty-year-old son of her best friend. A son listens to his mother's babyhood trauma of molestation. The mighty Garuda has to fly down to impart sense to some troubled teens and TV anchor Mira shakes hands with Narad, the heavenly minstrel. Weaving through this motley crowd is Alison Jordan, an Indophile with golden hair and green eyes filled with both humour and sorrow. She tells beautiful stories, has a penchant for quality tea and is in the pursuit of salvation. Join the Kitty Party Sannyasins on their quest for a happier life. 9788173716621 What is mathematics?”, “What does it have to do with real life?” These are questions which are rarely answered while teaching mathematics. But once students realise the meaning of mathematics, its strengths and limitations, its history and future, its relations with real-life situations, its beauty and intellectual challenges, the learning process becomes a fountain of delight and pleasure. The aim of this book is to provide just such an approach to teaching and learning. The present volume is the outcome of a series of lectures delivered at many universities, colleges, seminars and conferences to reduce the gap between class-room teaching and learning. The lectures will help mathematics teachers make their classroom discussions more innovative, promising and fruitful. The book also provides scope for students and teachers to formulate interesting mathematical projects for their curriculum requirements.
