Things to Make and Do in the Fourth Dimension
Autor Matt Parkeren Limba Engleză Paperback – iul 2015
Matt Parker, author of the No.1 bestsellerHumble Pi, takes us on a riotous journey through the possibilities of numbers
Mathematician Matt Parker uses bizarre Klein Bottles, unimaginably small pizza slices, knots no one can untie and computers built from dominoes to reveal some of the most exotic and fascinating ideas in mathematics. Starting with simple numbers and algebra, this book goes on to deal with inconceivably big numbers in more dimensions than you ever knew existed. And always with something for you to make or do along the way.
'The book oozes with sheer joy'New Scientist
'Matt Parker is some sort of unholy fusion of a prankster, wizard and brilliant nerd - clever, funny and ever so slightly naughty' Adam Rutherford, author ofCreation
'Matt Parker never got the memo about maths being boring ... he seeks to reconnect us to the numbers around us' Simon Usborne,Independent

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Anamaria Nicoara a dat nota:
Cartea mi-a fost recomandată chiar de către fetele de la Books și a fost o alegere super bună :) Este o carte foarte interesantă și distractivă. Pe cât de multă matematică, pe atât de multe glume și lucruri fascinante. But still, nota 10 întotdeauna pentru Books Express!
