afterword

One of the themes of this book is that the way engineers think about problems shapes their ability to solve them creatively. A breakthrough doesn’t come from memorizing steps —it comes from seeing. Seeing the heart of a problem clearly, from the right angle, until the answer reveals itself. Mathematics becomes the language used to express that clarity—not its source. Richard Feynman was that kind of thinker in physics. Dad was that kind of thinker, too.
