Product Description
Diagrams, graphs and pie charts pit lyrics against logic to shed fresh light on classics such as, 'Eternal Flame', 'Papa's Got a Brand New Bag', and 'Give Me All Your Loving'.
Ingenious, inspired and utterly addictive - Venn diagrams have never looked so cool ...

This review is from: Venn That Tune: Bringing the Poetry of Maths to the Magic of Pop! (Hardcover)
Venn that tune is a fabulous book: it's very witty, an enjoyable read, and provides a fun challenge trying to work out the answers to all the diagrams. It would make a perfect gift for someone; highly recommended.

Venn That Tune,

This review is from: Venn That Tune: Bringing the Poetry of Maths to the Magic of Pop! (Hardcover)
A highly witty, clever book to exercise those little grey cells and stimulate them. Venn That Tune is a wonderful fusion of pop and maths in the shape of charts and diagrams. Somewhat taxing to work them out but highly satisfying and rewarding when one does. The book will make a very good present, whether at Christmas or at any other time of the year. Highly recommended!

A brilliant gift book,

This review is from: Venn That Tune: Bringing the Poetry of Maths to the Magic of Pop! (Hardcover)
I gave a pile of these for Christmas, and there will be some more going out as birthday presents through the year. They're very clever, and unlike many novelty gift books, you don't run out of steam half way through.
