Do the prime numbers go on forever? Are there more whole numbers than even numbers? \u003ci\u003eThe Enjoyment of Math\u003c\/i\u003e explores these and other captivating problems and puzzles, introducing readers to some of the most fundamental ideas in mathematics. Written by two eminent mathematicians and requiring only a background in plane geometry and elementary algebra, this delightful book covers topics such as the theory of sets, the four-color problem, regular polyhedrons, Euler's proof of the infinitude of prime numbers, and curves of constant breadth. Along the way, it discusses the history behind the problems, carefully explaining how each has arisen and, in some cases, how to resolve it. With an incisive foreword by Alex Kontorovich, this Princeton Science Library edition shares the enjoyment of math with a new generation of readers.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHans Rademacher\u003c\/b\u003e (1892-1969) was professor emeritus of mathematics at the University of Pennsylvania. \u003cb\u003eOtto Toeplitz\u003c\/b\u003e (1881-1940) was a leading mathematician specializing in linear algebra and functional analysis. \u003cb\u003eAlex Kontorovich\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of mathematics at Rutgers University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.4 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 24, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45588991606886,"sku":"9780691241548","price":27.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/K0FzZkRVRkNqWVZQMUwxZmxIZzREdz09.webp?v=1778000486","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/the-enjoyment-of-math-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
