Mamikon A. Mnatsakanian
MAMIKON A. MNATSAKANIAN received a Ph. D. in physics in 1969 from Yerevan University, where he became professor of astrophysics. As an undergraduate he began developing innovative geometric methods for solving many calculus problems by a dynamic and visual approach that makes no use of formulas. Currently he is working with Tom Apostol under the auspices of Project MATHEMATICS! to present his methods in a multimedia format.
