About this product

Product Information

Yearning for the Impossible: The Surprising Truth of Mathematics, Second Edition explores the history of mathematics from the perspective of the creative tension between common sense and the impossible as the author follows the discovery or invention of new concepts that have marked mathematical progress. The author puts these creations into a broader context involving related impossibilities from art, literature, philosophy, and physics. This new edition contains many new exercises and commentaries, clearly discussing a wide range of challenging subjects.

    Good priced new book, still in original plastic wrapper. Slight delay in delivery but sorted out quickly by the seller and then arrived within a couple of days. Very helpful communication. I will buy from this seller again if they have another book I am looking for. Thank you Andrew for your help in this. Trevor.
