> 24 hourDaktari Obenga has done our ancestors proud with his very detailed gatherings and translations of the sheer brilliance of the ancient Egyptians. Obenga has taken a methodological approach to uncovering the philosophy we most often attribute to the West as having its genesis in Egyptian philosophical thought. He shows how some have tried to discount Egyptian philosophy as little more than potions, sayings and the like. Moreover, a closer read of the Book of Coming Forth...(Book of the Dead, colloquial) demonstrates the depth of the thought process of our ancestors. If that was not enough, Obenga then goes on to show in his methodological process, the sophisticated medical procedures the ancient Egyptians (as well as black Africa) were capable of operating. In fact, he shows how the Greeks learned from the very methods used by the Egyptians (Papyrus Ebers). Finally, Obenga references several of the papyri in private collections, bought from merchants over the past few centuries, referencing the mathematical capabilities of ancient Egyptians. The Papyrus Rhind, is one in particular which details several problems from calculating the area of a circle in a square with 4 rectangular isosceles to the use of co-tangent to calculate the angles for pyramid building. Overall, a fascinating read. I am thoroughly impressed.

> 24 hourSingapore math is working very well for one of my kids. He is an advanced student and has flown through one of these books a month. For my second kiddo, this was an awful experience. We gave it six weeks and we were miserable the whole time. She was so overwhelmed. I bought these because they were the least expensive of the major math brands and was thrilled that they worked for one kid.
