| "Think of it as gymnastics for your mind." - a reviewer in Glen Rose., Texas. In Basic Math for Ordinary People, North Texas author John Cunyus delivers summaries of numbers: addition, subtraction, and the like. “It’s the stuff we learned back in the 5th grade, then forgot two days after the test,” Cunyus says. “Only now we wish we remembered it.” So, what’s different about this book? Cunyus writes the opening chapters in English and in Spanish. Savvy readers can use it to teach basic English and Spanish, alongside the math. Sixth-generation Texan John Cunyus is a graduate of Rice, TCU, and Pacific Western Universities. Cunyus served twenty years as an ordained minister, publishing many books and articles over that span. During that time, he served Christian churches in Pilot Point, Weatherford, Houston (twice), Lake Jackson, and Dallas, all in Texas. In 2005, he left ministry to work as a writer. In September, 2006, he published Flames in the Jungle, first in a series of Action/Adventure novels set in Colombia, South America. In November, 2006, his publisher reissued Flames of Faith: A Thumbnail Guide to World Religions, which he wrote in the aftermath of the September 11th terrorist attacks. Cunyus also publishes an online magazine, www.JohnCunyus.com, and speaks frequently to groups around North Texas. Cunyus’s upcoming titles include parts two and three of the Miguel Escalante Trilogy he began with Flames in the Jungle: Toromoillo the Hunted (2007) and Angel of Death (2008), both from iUniverse. Books are available on Amazon.com. Cunyus, married to the former Rocio Lizarazo of Colombia, South America, is the father of four children.
