Mathematics educators agree that problem solving is one of the essential skills
their students should possess, yet few mathematics courses or textbooks are
devoted entirely to developing this skill. Supported by narrative, examples, and
exercises, Ants, Bikes, and Clocks: Problem Solving for Undergraduates is a
readable and enjoyable text designed to strengthen the problem-solving skills of
undergraduate students. The book, which provides hundreds of mathematical
problems, gives special emphasis to problems in context, often called story
problems or modeling problems, that require mathematical formulation as a
preliminary step. Both analytical and computational approaches, as well as the
interplay between them, are included.
