摘要

Abstract

The Remarkable Traditional Chinese Mathematical Culture

edited by Professor Zhang Weizhong from Zhejiang Normal University

was published by East China University of Science and Technology Press in September 2024. Through 18 thematic chapters—covering magic squares

the mathematics of tonality

Chinese paper-cutting

water clocks

Zhao Shuang's chord diagram

and more—the book draws on detailed research and a richly illustrated writing style to present each topic accessibly yet with scholarly rigor. The exploration unfolds across four dimensions: tracing historical origins

examining mathematics and culture

validating knowledge through practice

and exploring applications and extensions. Employing diverse research methods

the work delves deeply into treasures of traditional mathematical culture

promotes the integration of this heritage with mathematics education

and supports the ongoing development of the new curriculum reform

thereby effectively strengthening cultural confidence among teachers and students. Furthermore

the book provides a paradigm for subsequent academic research

significantly enriches readers' knowledge base

and offers valuable insights and guidance for teaching practices.
