"Mathematics in the Modern World belongs to the general education subjects recommended by the Commission on Higher Education to be taken by college students in the Philippines. This subject is especially designed to connect mathematics to the real world. Instead of the common notion that mathematics is a bunch of formulas, this subject emphasizes how concepts and formulas are seen and used every day in communication, architecture, investment, data management, and business. Hence, appreciation and application of mathematics are the foci of this book"-- From the preface of the book.
