Krátky popis
'Who knew numbers could be so charming? ... Suri takes us on a
light-hearted journey all the way from nothing (zero) to infinity'
Karen Joy Fowler, New York Times bestselling author of We Are All
Completely Beside OurselvesOur universe has multiple origin
stories, from religious creation myths to the Big Bang of
scientists. But if we leave those behind and start from nothing -
no matter, no cosmos, not even empty space - could we create a
universe using only maths?In this new mathematical origin story,
mathematician and award-winning novelist Manil Suri creates a
natural progression of ideas needed to design our world, starting
with numbers and continuing through geometry, algebra, and
beyond.With evocative and engaging examples ranging from
multidimensional crochet to the Mona Lisa's asymmetrical smile, as
well as ingenious storytelling that helps illuminate complex
concepts like infinity and relativity, The Big Bang of Numbers
charts a playful, inventive course to existence. Distilled from
almost four decades of teaching experience, and offering both
striking new perspectives for maths aficionados and an accessible
introduction for enthusiastic novices, The Big Bang of Numbers
proves that we can all fall in love with maths.
