In an advert in last week's Economist newspaper, there is an advert for some educational materials. The materials look interesting and if I were in the mood I would buy them. However, this is what caught my eye:
Please send me ... which consists of 24 half hour lectures ... They then add, '12 hours in all'.
Do you get the impression that Fermat's last theorem, Fibonacci numbers and the Pythagorean theorem and geometry of ellipses might be a bit beyond someone who needs to be told that 24 half hour lectures equates to 12 hours?
