Description
Ian Stewart explores the astonishing properties of numbers from one to ten to zero and infinity, including one figure that, if you wrote it out, would span the universe. He looks at every kind of number you can think of – real, imaginary, rational, irrational, positive and negative – along with several you might have thought you couldn’t think of. He explains the insights of the ancient mathematicians, shows how numbers have evolved through the ages, and reveals the way numerical theory enables everyday life.
