Sobre este item
From the front cover: This book is "A fascinating exploration of the universe of mathematics by the author of MATHEMATICS FOR THE MILLION. Over 400 illustrations, more than 100 in color."
From the back dust jacket: "Mathematics has invaded every facet of our everyday lives to an extent which excludes anyone without some acquaintance with mathematical techniques for a deep understanding of the circumstances that shape them..." - Lancelot Hogben
Book - Very Good condition. Light tan cloth with brown title on front, black spine with gold gilt text. Very minimal edge wear except at spine, very little corner wear. Pages have a few tiny spots. Text is clean. Binding is tight. Dust Jacket - Poor condition. Color is good, but there is much rubbing, bumping, tears, and chips, plus discoloration on the inside from the black spine. This dust jacket is somewhat fragile, so it is now in a Brodart protective cover. The first photo of it is in the clear cover.
Please use photos as part of the description.
320 pages including Index. This is a heavy book and will require a little additional postage.
