Clement Falbo
Author Information: My name is Clement E. Falbo and I am a mathematics professor emeritus at Sonoma State University (SSU). I started teaching mathematics in 1958 and received my PhD in 1963 under the supervision of H. J. Ettlinger from the University of Texas at Austin. I taught mathematics in the California State University System from 1963 to 1999, mostly at Sonoma State University. I regularly taught courses in my field of study, differential equations, analysis and mathematical modeling. My general education courses and business and economics courses, using my own textbooks, were successful and popular. Over the years, I have won awards for my teaching. After retiring in 1999, my wife, Jean, and I served in the Peace Corps, where I taught high school mathematics in Zimbabwe. Publications: Papers: I have had several articles published in mathematical journals and I presented numerous papers to professional societies between 1962 and 2012. I will be happy to provide a list of these at your request. Books: I have previously published three mathematical textbooks: Finite Mathematics Applied, 1977 Wadsworth Publishing. Math Odyssey 2000, 1994 Stipes Publishing. First Year Calculus, An Inquiry Based Learning Approach, 2019 Folio Avenue Publishing. Major Paper I have acquired a little bit of fame in mathematics, especially on the internet, for my paper, The Golden Ratio-A contrary viewpoint, published in the College Mathematics Journal March 2005. It challenged a widely-held misconception about a number called the "golden ratio." This paper rectified a mathematical anomaly that had caused this topic to evolve it into a popular mythology, most notably in describing the shape of sea shells.
