El reto de todos los que han disfrutado con las Matemáticas es hacer que los demás también las disfruten. Los planes de estudio, los métodos educativos o los libros de texto ofrecen una visión sistemática y lineal de esta disciplina, pero lo cierto es que las Matemáticas son algo más que operaciones aritméticas o figuras geométricas. Así opina el autor de este libro que, dejando aparte el carácter utilitario de las mismas, hace de esta disciplina el principal entrenamiento de nuestro potencial intelectual. Nos brinda la magia de poder pensar, seduce nuestra curiosidad y desafía nuestra mente. Aventuras matemáticas: en busca del código secreto es el inicio de una serie de historias que nos introducirán en distintas áreas del currículo escolar desde la realidad cercana de sus jóvenes protagonistas.

On September 5, 1957, Jack Kerouac?s novel On The Road was published. Since then, few books have had as profound an impact on American culture. Pulsating with the rhythms of late-1940s/1950s underground America, jazz, sex, illicit drugs, and the mystery and promise of the open road, Kerouac?s classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be?Beat? and has inspired generations of writers, musicians, artists, poets and seekers who cite their discovery of the book as the event that?set them free.? Based on Kerouac?s adventures with Neal Cassady, On The Road tells the story of two friends whose four cross-country road trips are a quest for meaning and true experience. Expressing a mixture of sad-eyed naïveté and wild abandon, and imbued with Kerouac?s love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz, On The Road is the quintessential American vision of freedom and hope. It changed American literature and changed anyone who has ever picked it up.
