Mathematics Review. 5 issues per year, 46 pp each, A4 size. Philip Allan
Publishers Limited, Market Place, Deddington, Oxford OX 4 4SE, England.
First subscription $15.95; subsequent subscriptions to same address,
$7.50 each.
Aimed at the 16-20 age group, this new mathematics publication "provides
teaching re sources for . . . the A-level curriculum." Because it is
devoted solely to mathematics, Mathematics Review lacks the emphasis on
physical science applications of its American counter part Quantum. But
the topics are interesting, the articles are short and lively, the design
is very attractive, and the editorial board is distinguished (Christopher
Zeeman, lan Stewart, and colleagues from Warwick). Each issue includes
articles (such as determining the date of Ramadan, and the contribution
of music to mathematical discovery) plus columns on research news
(unsigned but probably written by master expositor Stewart), exam tips, a
cartoon series (by Cosgrove), Q & A, and more.

February 1992 issue.
