About this title

Synopsis

Aleph-null is the cardinality, or size, of the set of natural numbers, and is a �€˜countably infinite cardinal�€. Remarkably, whereas 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + aleph-null = aleph-null. The authors of this advanced maths explainer utilize plain English in an attempt to convey difficult mathematical concepts, including large numbers, higher dimensions, computation and primes, fusing historical, philosophical and anecdotal aspects of each concept with the decidedly technical. Slightly off-mint.

Store Description

Specialising in good literature, the arts, history, philosophy, science and local interest titles, the Colchester Bookshop occupies three floors of one of the town centre's most recognisable buildings: the archway leading to Tymperleys. Drop in for a browse, be amazed by our quirky rooms and staircases, and wonder at the surviving medieval hall roof of the Colchester home of William Gilberd (1544-1603), physician to Elizabeth I and one of the world's greatest early scientists.
