Tom Lehrer was an American satirist, singer-songwriter, musician and mathematician, most famous for his humorous songs from the 1950s and 60s, including The Elements, a tongue-twisting song with lyrics made up of every element in the Periodic Table. He began writing and performing his songs at Harvard University where he studied mathematics from the age of 15. After multiple albums, he largely gave up performing and began to teach mathematics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US, moving to the University of California in the 1970s. In 2020, at the age of 92, Lehrer donated all the lyrics and music written by him to the public domain. Elina Braslina has illustrated over 25 children's and YA books by authors from her home country of Latvia. Her board books by Lawrence Schimel depicting LGBTQ families have been published in 21 languages. She is also a production designer for animated films and makes feminist art in her spare time. This is a maths activity book like no other fun, engaging, real-world maths-related activities in full, glorious colour for children 7 to 9 years old. Its a fun way to develop mathematical skills and knowledge. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Diritto legale di recesso
Hai il diritto di recedere dal presente contratto entro 14 giorni senza fornire alcuna motivazione.

Per esercitare il diritto di recesso, compila e invia elettronicamente una dichiarazione esplicita sul nostro sito Web, alla voce “I miei acquisti” nella sezione “Mio account”. Ti comunicheremo senza indugio una conferma di ricezione di tale recesso su un supporto durevole (ad es. via e-mail).
Per rispettare il termine di recesso, è sufficiente inviare la comunicazione relativa all'esercizio del diritto di recesso prima della scadenza del periodo di recesso stesso.
Effetti del recesso
In caso di recesso dal presente contratto, ti rimborseremo tutti i pagamenti ricevuti, compresi i costi di spedizione (ad eccezione dei costi supplementari derivanti dalla tua eventuale scelta di un tipo di spedizione diverso dal tipo meno costoso di consegna standard da noi offerto).
Potremo effettuare una detrazione dal rimborso per la perdita di valore dei beni forniti, qualora tale perdita sia il risultato di una manipolazione non necessaria da parte tua.
Eseguiremo il rimborso senza indebito ritardo e non oltre 14 giorni dal giorno in cui saremo informati della tua decisione di recedere dal presente contratto.
Il rimborso sarà effettuato utilizzando lo stesso mezzo di pagamento da te usato per la transazione iniziale, salvo che tu non abbia espressamente concordato altrimenti; in ogni caso, non dovrai sostenere alcun costo quale conseguenza di tale rimborso.
Possiamo trattenere il rimborso finché non avremo ricevuto i beni oppure finché non avrai fornito la prova di averli rispediti, a seconda di quale condizione si verifichi per prima.
