Produktinformationen zu „Finding Moonshine (ePub)“

Following the eccentric individuals who have quested after symmetry through the ages, we are plunged into a very particular world: one of bearded professors and young geniuses killed in duels, of 196,883 dimensional shapes (known as the Monster) and of exhilarations unique to mathematical investigation. Grappling with some of the most complex ideas the human mind can encompass, 'Finding Moonshine' brilliantly combines mathematical insight with personal stories - and allows us to see the world just a little more as mathematicians do.
