Good, but a little confusing
This book is far more in depth than other 'speed mathematics', thus a little difficult to understand. Perhaps the problem lies in the translation; I really can't say. The chapters involving factorization of simple and hard quadratics and cubics were too hard for me to figure out, so I stopped there. Other topics later on in the book are certainly not for the lay reader:

Factorisation and Differential Calculus
Apollonius Theorem
Analyitcal Conics

It would be much appreciated if anyone can direct a primer for this book. Currently, most of the speed math books only involve simple arithmetic.

Ignore KD's smoke and judge for yourself
please forgive K.D jones for his effort to defame (or his effort to contribute) and to detour knowledge seeking loyal Amazon customers( or to help) for he doesn't know what he's saying. Until the day mr. Jone's name or his comment is thankfully recognized by at least one from worlds' modern elite scientist community (such as Albert Einstien for thankfully remembering India's contribution of Zero), I'd question who are actual mathematicians, scientist and educated people? It'll take more than your life time to comprehend what's written in Vedas (that's if you have what it takes to learn it before you start criticizing)

Classic book on Vedic Mathematics
This is now the de-facto epitome of Vedic Math condensed from various parchments strewn all over - what was part of the Atharvana Veda which was lost to India over the centuries. If you wish to master this lost science (err.. Math) that was lost to generations of mankind, get this book. You will be amazed at the myriad ways to go about solving simple math problems.
