William Timothy Call was a mathematician and an individual interested in using mathematics to improve daily life. In A New Method in Multiplication and Division, Call presents a method he personally devised to solve multiplication and division problems. In his introduction the author acknowledges that the method presented in this book is of no great significance, rather it is a curious way of attacking a problem that likely differs from what the reader has been taught. It is clear from the beginning that this is a book aimed at those with a keen interest in math. The book opens with Call's method for solving simple multiplication problems, before progressing to his method for problems of division.A New Method in Multiplication and Division is a brief work and one that will appeal to those for whom mathematics is a hobby. The subject matter is largely trivial, and while the methods detailed are effective, they are presented largely as a novelty. Those who are passionate about mathematics will likely enjoy the casual approach of the author and the general tone of the book.For readers passionate about mathematics and problem solving, William Timothy Call's A New Method in Multiplication and Division is recommended. This is not a textbook or a resource guide, but rather a lighthearted presentation of a simple but alternative mathematical approach, intended to entertain and inform the reader.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
