"Mathematical Reasoning: Analogies, Metaphors, and Images" by Lyn D. English explores the cognitive processes involved in mathematical reasoning. The book emphasizes the importance of analogies, metaphors, and visual imagery in understanding and developing mathematical concepts. English presents strategies and examples that demonstrate how these tools can enhance problem-solving and critical thinking skills in mathematics. By integrating psychological and educational perspectives, the work provides insights into how learners can use creative thinking to make sense of abstract mathematical ideas, fostering a deeper engagement with mathematics in both educational settings and everyday life.
