Introducing Infinity A Graphic Guide By: Brian Clegg Publisher: Icon Books Ltd Print ISBN: 9781848314061, 184831406X eText ISBN: 9781848318830, 1848318839 Format: EPUB Available from $ 4.79 USD SKU 9781848318830 Infinity is a profoundly counter-intuitive and brain-twisting subject that has inspired some great thinkers – and provoked and shocked others. The ancient Greeks were so horrified by the implications of an endless number that they drowned the man who gave away the secret. And a German mathematician was driven mad by the repercussions of his discovery of transfinite numbers. Brian Clegg and Oliver Pugh’s brilliant graphic tour of infinity features a cast of characters ranging from Archimedes and Pythagoras to al-Khwarizmi, Fibonacci, Galileo, Newton, Leibniz, Cantor, Venn, Gödel and Mandelbrot, and shows how infinity has challenged the finest minds of science and mathematics.
