The Mandelbrot set, one of the most famous examples of mathematical visualization.. Mathematical phenomena can be understood and explored via visualization.Classically, this consisted of two-dimensional drawings or building three-dimensional models (particularly plaster models in the 19th and early 20th century).
Icons of Mathematics: An Exploration of Twenty Key Images is a book on elementary geometry for a popular audience. It was written by Roger B. Nelsen and Claudi Alsina, and published by the Mathematical Association of America in 2011 as volume 45 of their Dolciani Mathematical Expositions book series.
The "Demystified" series is introductory in nature, for middle and high school students, favoring more in-depth coverage of introductory material at the expense of fewer topics. The "Easy Way" series is a middle ground: more rigorous and detailed than the "Demystified" books, but not as rigorous and terse as the Schaum's series.
The books in this series, like the other Springer-Verlag mathematics series, are small yellow books of a standard size. The books in this series tend to be written at a more elementary level than the similar Graduate Texts in Mathematics series, although there is a fair amount of overlap between the two series in terms of material covered and ...

Proof without words of the Nicomachus theorem (Gulley (2010)) that the sum of the first n cubes is the square of the n th triangular number. In mathematics, a proof without words (or visual proof) is an illustration of an identity or mathematical statement which can be demonstrated as self-evident by a diagram without any accompanying explanatory text.
The book is written at a level suitable for high school students and interested amateurs, [1] [3] and McAndrew recommends the book to them. [ 2 ] Both Baggett and Gerry Leversha find the chapter on fractals (written by Robert A. Chaffer) [ 6 ] to be the weakest part of the book, [ 1 ] [ 4 ] and Joop van der Vaart calls this chapter interesting ...
Visual art could now depict a single, unified scene, rather than a combination of several. Early examples include Masolino's St. Peter Healing a Cripple and the Raising of Tabitha ( c. 1423 ), Donatello's The Feast of Herod ( c. 1427 ), as well as Ghiberti's Jacob and Esau and other panels from the east doors of the Florence Baptistery .
