About the Author
Colin Beveridge holds a doctorate in mathematics from the University of St Andrews. He gave up a position as a researcher at Montana State University (working with NASA, among other projects) to become a full--time maths tutor, helping adults, GCSE, A--level and university students overcome their fear of maths -- a position he finds far more enjoyable than real work.
