Math's
infinite
mysteries
unfold
in
this
updated
edition
of
the
award-winning
The
Math
Book.
Beginning
millions
of
years
ago
with
ancient
“ant
odometers,”
and
moving
through
time
to
our
modern-day
quest
for
higher
dimensions,
prolific
polymath
Clifford
Pickover
covers
major
milestones
in
mathematical
history.
Among
the
numerous
concepts
readers
will
encounter
as
they
dip
into
this
inviting
anthology:
cicada-generated
prime
numbers,
magic
squares,
and
the
butterfly
effect.
Each
topic
is
presented
in
a
lavishly
illustrated
spread,
including
formulas
and
real-world
applications
of
the
theorems.
This
reissue
includes
four
new

2013
(Bounded
Gaps
Between
Primes),
2015
(Erdos
Discrepancy
Problem
Solved),
2016
(Sphere
Packing
in
Dimension
8),
and
2023

Tiles
and
Beyond).
Each
topic
is
presented
in
a
lavishly
illustrated
spread,
including
formulas
and
real-world
applications
of
the theorems.
