PATNA: Maths wizard Anand Kumar on Saturday said the reason why people find mathematics a boring subject is that they fail to understand the `hows and whys' of mathematical calculations and equations.
The founder of Super 30, a group coaching students free for IIT-JEE examination with 100% success rate for the past several years, was speaking at a book launch programme at the Patna Book Fair here.
"Maths plays an important role in our life right from childhood. Once a student starts understanding it, maths becomes very interesting," he said.
Anand was launching a maths book, `Make Mathematics Your Best Friend'. "The book comprehensively simplifies complexities of various terms of maths," he said. The book has been authored by Rajesh Kumar Thakur and published by Prabhat Prakashan.
A senior official of Prabhat Prakashan said, "We will publish a book on Super 30 and its founder, Anand Kumar. The book is likely to be out by the end of next year."
Earlier, two more books -`Swadeshi Ki Sanskriti' and `Bhir Me Khoya Hua Samaj'- written by Manohar Shyam Joshi were released at the fair.
Noted filmmaker Prakash Jha is likely to visit the book fair on Sunday. He will give away awards to young achievers in the fields of journalism, literature and theatre.
Surendra Pratap Patrakarita Puraskar will go to photo-journalist Amrit Jai Kishan. Hare Prakash Upadhyay will be given Vidyapati Sahitya Puraskar for literature and Bijendra Kumar Tak will be awarded Bhikhari Thakur Rangkarma Puraskar for theatre.
A series of cultural events were also organised on the ninth day of the book fair. The day started with Nimbus International organizing a cultural programme in `Siesta-Fiesta'. Two seminars on different career choices were attended by a large number of school and college students. A public discussion `Parisamvad' was also organised.
A programme on poetry, `Unka Kavya Meri Vaani', saw the participation of many poets. In a public discussion programme, experts from different fields discussed the new image of Bihar and its future prospects. A quiz competition and a discussion on different books in `Bookworm' programme were also held.
