Leonard Mlodinow
Euclid’s Window [EPUB ebook]
The Story of Geometry from Parallel Lines to Hyperspace

Stöd

Omslag till Leonard Mlodinow: Euclid's Window (ePUB)

Through Euclid’s Window, Leonard Mlondinow brilliantly and delightfully leads us on a journey through five revolutions in geometry, from the Greek concept of parallel lines to the latest notions of hyperspace. This new, refreshing, alternative history of maths reveals how simple questions anyone might ask about space in the living room or in some other galaxy have been the hidden engine of science’s highest achievements.
